Lyrics
Don't you know, baby, the faster you get there
The longer it takes you to leave
And ain't it so that the nicer they treat you
The more they're inclined to deceive
So it goes, baby, I'm here for the long run
They told me to come as you are
I found a good one, she looks like she could run
She looks like a good one so far
Never got handed a dollar by no one
I earned every dime in the jar
She wants to catch you and she wants to fetch you
And she wants to wrap you all up
Into a bundle if you make a bundle of cash
You're just plain out of luck
It starts out dandy and she'll give you candy
That's only part of the trap
She gets an attorney and his name is Bernie
And he'll string you up like a cat
Never got handed a dollar by no one
I earned every dime just like that
Every dime in the jar comes from runnin'
From dive bar to bar
Every dime in the jar comes from diggin' and scratchin'
And stealin' the gold from the stars
Please understand me, ain't nobody handin' me
Dimes that I keep in the jar
Every dime in the jar comes from runnin'
From dive bar to bar, oh yeah
Every dime in the jar comes from diggin' and scratchin'
And stealin' the gold from the stars
Please understand me, ain't nobody handin' me
Dimes that I keep in the jar
When I was a young boy, my daddy had nothin'
Mama would save every dime
Now mamas have nannies and housecleaning spannies
Daddies will lose every time
They don't save dimes now, not even dollars
They don't save nothin' you earn
Now I don't know how but sure in the end now
There's some place where they gonna burn
Never got handed a dollar by no one
And here is the lesson I learned
Every dime in the jar comes from runnin'
From dive bar to bar
Every dime in the jar comes from diggin' and scratchin'
And stealin' the gold from the stars
Every dime in the jar comes from runnin'
From dive bar to bar, oh yeah
Every dime in the jar comes from diggin' and scratchin'
And stealin' the gold from the stars
Please understand me, ain't nobody handin' me
Dimes that I keep in the jar
Dimes that I keep in the jar
Dimes that I keep in the jar, yeah
Dimes that I keep in the jar, yeah
Dimes that I keep in the jar
