Old Five and Dimers Like Me - Billy Joe Shaver

作词：Billy Joe Shaver

作曲：Billy Joe Shaver

I've spent a lifetime

Making up my mind to be

More than the measure of

What I thought others could see

Good luck and fast bucks are too few

And too far between

That's Cadillac buyers

And old five and dimers like me

She stood beside me

Letting me know she would be

Something to lean on

When everything ran out on me

Fenced yards ain't hole cards

And like as not never will be

Reason for rhymers

And old five and dimers like me

It's taking me so long

And now that I know I believe

All that I do or say is all I ever will be

Too much ain't enough for old five

And dimers like me

Too far and too high

And too deep ain't too much to be

And an old five

And dimer is all I intended to be
