Dime At A Time
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
My whole life saving's a two dollar bill that's why I'm here tonight I've got time to kill
Now I can tell my story about twenty times
With two dollars in the jukebox a dime at a time
Two dollars in the jukebox a dime at a time
Play that same old song about the love gone wrong till closin' time
Two dollars ought to do me if you'll buy the wind
And I put it in the jukebox a dime at a time
Pardon me Mister mind if I sit down misery likes company and I believe that I found
Somebody just as lonely don't believe I'm wrong
If you had a place to go to you'd have done been gone
