Lyrics
If I had a nickel
For every dime you have
I'd have half your money
And you'd talk about not half bad
More like ten times as good
I don't know anyone who wouldn't want to
Walk around with more money if they could
If you could just cut me off a little bit of it
That would surely do me good
I'm in between jobs
Can you dig it?
I knew that you could
Hoo! Can you dig it?
I was hopin' that you would
There's only one way to win at a shell game
Be the one that gets the other guy to play
You think I'm not bright, you might be right
I might have been born yesterday but I was up all night
I might have come in here a little cross-eyed lookin'
But I'm walkin' out of here alright
I'll be wearin' my dark sunglasses
'Cause the sun still shines as bright down on you when you're
In between jobs
Can you dig it?
I knew that you could
Hoo! Can you dig it?
I was hopin' that you would
I seen a hundred-dollar bill one time
Leanin' up against a chain-link fence
I been walkin' around outside lookin' down at fences ever since
It's the root of all evil, yes, I agree
And I suppose that the blossom of it would be my kind of poverty
I know how mad I'm gettin' just thinkin' about
How much more you got than me
And I'm thinkin' now what's keepin' me from killin' this guy
And just takin' his shit from him?
Can you dig it?
I knew that you could
Hey, can you dig it?
I was hopin' that you would
