Nickels And Dimes - Remastered
I used to stand on the corner when I was a child
Play my guitar and sing as the people went by
The sidewalks were crowded, but I'd just sing louder
'Cause I didn't mind
Just spending my time, spending my rhymes
And singing for nickels and dimes
Nickels and dimes, a song at a time
For nickels and dimes
I'd brighten their day as they'd go on their way
And they'd brighten mine
A sidewalk rehearsal for dreams
That I held in my mind
I knew that someday, in my own special way
I'd repay all their nickels and dimes
I recall the sidewalks each night as I'd stand on the stage
And play my guitar and sing for the people who pay
'Cause I finally made it to what they all call the big time
But I still remember I still owe some nickels and dimes
Nickels and dimes, a song at a time
For nickels and dimes
A sidewalk rehearsal for dreams
That I held in my mind
So if you remember a child
On the corner of time
You'll know that I wrote this to repay
My nickels and dimes
Nickels and dimes, a song at a time
For nickels and dimes
A sidewalk rehearsal for dreams
That I held in my mind
So if you remember a child
On the corner of time
You'll know that I wrote this to repay
My nickels and dimes
Play my guitar and sing as the people went by
The sidewalks were crowded, but I'd just sing louder
'Cause I didn't mind
Just spending my time, spending my rhymes
And singing for nickels and dimes
Nickels and dimes, a song at a time
For nickels and dimes
I'd brighten their day as they'd go on their way
And they'd brighten mine
A sidewalk rehearsal for dreams
That I held in my mind
I knew that someday, in my own special way
I'd repay all their nickels and dimes
I recall the sidewalks each night as I'd stand on the stage
And play my guitar and sing for the people who pay
'Cause I finally made it to what they all call the big time
But I still remember I still owe some nickels and dimes
Nickels and dimes, a song at a time
For nickels and dimes
A sidewalk rehearsal for dreams
That I held in my mind
So if you remember a child
On the corner of time
You'll know that I wrote this to repay
My nickels and dimes
Nickels and dimes, a song at a time
For nickels and dimes
A sidewalk rehearsal for dreams
That I held in my mind
So if you remember a child
On the corner of time
You'll know that I wrote this to repay
My nickels and dimes
