Tom T. Hall - Old Five And Dimers Like Me lyrics

I've spent the lifetime making up my mind to be More than the measure of what I thought others could see Good luck and fast bucks they're too few and too far between There's catalog buyers and old five and dimers like me She stood beside me letting me know she would be Something to lean on when everything ran out on me Well fenced yards ain't hole cards and like is not ever will be The reason for rhymers and old five and dimers like me ( harmonica ) Well it's taking me so long now that I know I believe All that I do or say is all I ever will be Too far and too high and too deep ain't too much to see Too much ain't enough for old five and dimers like me An old five and dimer is all I intended to be (You know country people don't shine their boots very often And they don't shine other folks' boots either thank you)
