Old Five and Dimers Like Me

I spent a lifetime making up my mind to be

More than the measure what I thought others could see

Good luck and fast bucks are too far and too few between

Cadillac buyers and old five and dimers like me

Yes, she stood beside me letting me know who she would be

Something to lean on when everything ran out on me

Fenced yards ain't hole cards and like is not never will be

Reason for rhymers and old five and dimers like me

It's taken me so long but now that I know I believe

All that I do or say, all that I ever will be

Too far and too high and too deep ain't too much to be

Too much ain't enough for old five and dimers like me

Too far and too high and too deep ain't too much to be

Too much ain't enough for old five and dimers like me

And an old five and dimer is all I intended to be
