Nickels And Dimes Lyrics - Blackie & The Rodeo Kings

I tried to be someone else 

Pick my own pockets for a change 

Nickels and dimes - Shelly I told ya 

This town's killing you and me 

We could just drive to California 

It's as easy as walking cross the street 

Twenty-four hours, once around the sun, 

Puts us anywhere we want to be 

'cause tonight drew a line around me 

It's a circle I can't wear anymore 

Tonight threw a fist at me 

Shelly, I wish that we were some place else 

Tonight 

Look out any dirty window 

This town's not going anywhere 

I'm the freak of the week - waiting after hours 

For some pinball cowboy to climb my stairs 

And tonight drew a line around me 

There's a circle I can't wear anymore 

Tonight threw a fist at me 

Shelly, I wish that we were some place else 

And tonight drew a line around me 

It's a circle I can't wear anymore 

Tonight threw a fist at me 

Shelly, I wish that we were some place else 

Tonight
