Well you know that I'm not a gambler
But I'm being gambled on
They put in a nickel
And I sing a little song
Da da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da
They put in a nickel
And I sing a little song
Well I don't mind that they're lucky
But it seems like they always win
And gamblin' is illegal
In the state of mind I'm in
And if I had a nickel
For each time that I've been put on
I would be their nickel man
And I'd sing their nickel song
You know
They're only puttin' in a nickel
And they want a dollar song
You know
They're only puttin' in a nickel
And they want a dollar song
Well you know

What's wrong, what did I do wrong?
Why can't people
Well you know I don't know so many things
But I know what's been goin' on
We are only puttin' in a little
To get rid of a lot that's wrong
And if we had a nickel
For each time that we've been put on
We'd all be their nickel man
And we'd sing their nickel song
You know
We're only puttin' in a little
To get rid of a lot that's wrong
Oh, we're only puttin' in a nickel
And we want a dollar song
Well you know that I'm not a gambler
But I'm being gambled on
They put in a nickel
And I sing a little song
Da da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da
You know
We're only puttin' in a nickel
And we want a dollar
Oh, we're only puttin' in a little
To get rid of a lot that's
You know
We're only puttin' in a nickel
And we want a dollar song
