Nickel and Dime Lyrics

There's a leak in the kitchen

The plumbing is all coming undone

And I've been meaning to fix it

But I ain't got the time or the funds

And my girl, she deserves more

Than a man scraping change to get by

So I starve and I save up enough I can take

Her to some cheap buffet for a night

And it's one after another

Keep working your ass off all day

Right when your luck turns around is when your car will break down

And I'm tired of living this way

I've been trading my time for some nickels and dimes

Helping some rich guy get even more

And I swore I was done working these kinds of jobs

But my pride costs to much to afford

And it's one after another

Can't choose how to use up your pay

You got holes in your shoes, but your rent's overdue

And I'm tired of living this way

And it's one after another

Keep waiting for something to change now

And you dig yourself out, just to fall right back down

And I'm tired of living this way

Wipe those tears from your eyes, and bury deep down inside

That you're tired of living this way

We're all tired

Of living this way
