In Between Jobs

APPEARS ON

If I had a nickel
For every dime you have
I'd have half of your money
You talk about not half bad
More like ten times as good

I don't know anyone
That wouldn't want to hold on
To all that they had if they could
If you could just come off a little bit of money though
That would surely do me good
I'm in between jobs

Can you dig it
I knew that you could
Can you dig it
I was hopin’ you would

There's only one way to win this shell game
Be the one that gets the other guy to play
You think I'm not very bright and you might be right
I might have been born yesterday
But I was up all night
I might come in here a little blind side looking
But I still see light
It may be through cheap sunglasses
But still shines as bright down on you when you're
In between jobs

Can you dig it
I knew that you could
Can you dig it
I was hopin’ that you would

I seen a hundred dollar bill one time
Blowing up against a chain link fence
I've been walking around outside
Looking down at fences ever since
It's the root of all evil
I agree
And I suppose the blossom will be
My kind of poverty
I know how mad I'm getting
Just knowing how much more you've got than me
I'm thinking what's keeping me from killing this guy
And taking his shit

Can you dig it
