Nickels and Dimes Lyrics

Im a Cadillac tramp at the end of his road

A swap meet rat whos sittin on gold yeah baby

Im a guitar gangster without a tune

Im the baseball bat thats waiting to swing

Your loan shark friend with the broken knees yeah baby

Im a penthouse pauper with nothing to do

Chorus:

Yeah, yeah, yeah Im chasing nickels and dimes

The rest of the world passes me by

Nah, nah, nah Im just wasting my time

Im just sitting here and wondering why

Im the high rollin creep thats in too deep

With the slicked back hair and the silver teeth yeah baby

Im a vagabond king with a stolen crown

Im a jailhouse poet, a genius, a fool

Im the pimp whos lost his cool yeah baby

Ive got first class taste in a second class town

Chorus: Social Distortion - Nickels and Dimes - http://motolyrics.com/social-distortion/nickels-and-dimes-lyrics.html

Yeah, yeah, yeah Im chasing nickels and dimes

While the rest of the world passes me by

Nah, nah, nah Im just wasting my time

Im just sitting here and wondering why yea

Im a loaded gun pointed at the mirror

A drugstore cowboy whose end is near yeah baby

Im a big time schemer with broken down dreams

Im a derelict rebel without a cause

I aint the cat with the sharpest claws no baby

Cause sometimes life just aint what it seems

Chorus:

Yeah, yeah, yeah Im chasing nickels and dimes

While the rest of the world passes me by

Nah, nah, nah Im just wasting my time

Im just sitting here and wondering why

Im just sitting here and wondering why

And just like you Im wondering why
