Nickels and Dimes

I Used to Stand On a Corner When I Was a Child

And I'd Play My Guitar and Sing As the People Went By

The Sidewalks Were Crowded But I'd Just Sing Louder Cause I Didn't Mind

Just Spending My Time, Spinning My Rhymes and Singing For Nickels and Dimes

Nickels and Dimes a Song At a Time For Nickels and Dimes

I'd Brighten Their Day As They Go On Their Way and They'd Brighten Mine

A Sidewalk Rehearsal For Dreams That I Held in My Mind

I Knew That Someday in My Own Special I'd Repay All Their Nickels and Dimes

I Recall the Sidewalk Each Night As I Stand On the Stage

As I Play My Guitar and Sing For the People Who Paid

Cause I Finally Made It to What They All Call the Big Time

But I Still Remember I Still Owe Some Nickels and Dimes

Nickels and Dimes a Song At a Time For Nickels and Dimes

A Sidewalk Rehearsal For Dreams That I Held in My Mind

So If You Remember a Child On the Corner of Time

You'll Know That I Wrote This to Repay Your Nickels and Dimes

Nickels and Dimes a Song At a Time For Nickels and Dimes

A Sidewalk Rehearsal For Dreams That I Held in My Mind

So If You Remember a Child On a Corner of Time

You'll Know That I Wrote This to Repay Your Nickels and Dimes

Nickels and Dimes a Song At a Time For Nickels and Dimes

A Sidewalk Rehearsal For Dreams That I Held in My Mind

So If You Remember a Child On a Corner of Time

You'll Know That I Wrote This to Repay Your Nickels and Dimes
