Blackie & the Rodeo Kings - Nickels and Dimes lyrics

I tried to be someone else

Pick my own pockets for a change

Nickels and dimes - Shelly I told ya

This town's killing you and me

We could just drive to California

It's as easy as walking cross the street

Twenty-four hours, once around the sun,

Puts us anywhere we want to be

Cuz tonight drew a line around me

It's a circle I can't wear anymore

Tonight threw a fist at me

Shelly, I wish that we were some place else

Tonight

Look out any dirty window

This town's not going anywhere

I'm the freak of the week - waiting after hours

For some pinball cowboy to climb my stairs

And tonight drew a line around me

There's a circle I can't wear anymore

Tonight threw a fist at me

Shelly, I wish that we were some place else

And tonight drew a line around me

It's a circle I can't wear anymore

Tonight threw a fist at me

Shelly, I wish that we were some place else

Tonight
