Shine
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 friends never understood my rough and rowdy ways
They think I'm the only fool my daddy ever raised
But I'm gonna shine shine shine shine see me shine
With a little luck and greenback dollar you're gonna see me shine
Here's to the ones who do believe and disbelieve somehow
I'd give a hundred dollars Lord if they could see me now
See me shine shine shine shine see me shine
With a little luck and greenback dollar that's gonna make me shine
I don't need fancy ladies wasting up my time
Give me tender loving care and the one that's mine
Make me shine shine shine shine shine make me shine
With a little luck and greenback dollar you're gonna see me shine
I like living easy I like being free
Living free and easy brings out the best in me
Makes me shine shine shine shine shine make me shine
With a little luck and greenback dollar you're gonna see me shine
