Dimes In The Jar Lyrics - Songs From Lonely Avenue - The Brian Setzer Orchestra

Don't you know, baby? 

The faster you get there 

The longer it takes you to leave 

And ain't it so 

That the nicer they treat you 

The more they're inclined to deceive 

So it goes, baby, I'm here for the long run 

They told me to come as you are 

I found a good one 

She looks like she could run 

She looks like a good one so far 

Never got handed a dollar by no one 

I earned every dime in the jar

20 Classic Christmas Lyrics to Celebrate The Holiday Season 

She wants to catch you 

And she wants to fetch you 

And she wants to wrap you all up 

Into a bundle, if you make a bundle 

Of cash, you're just plain outta luck 

It starts out dandy 

And she'll give you candy 

But that's only part of the trap 

She gets an attorney 

And his name is Bernie 

And he'll string you up like a cat 

Never got handed a dollar by no one 

I earned every dime just like that 

Every dime in the jar 

Comes from runnin' 

From dive bar to bar 

Photos 

Every dime in the jar comes 

From diggin' and scratchin' 

And stealin' the gold 

From the stars 

Please, understand me 

Ain't nobody handing me 

Dimes that I keep in the jar 

Every dime in the jar 

Comes from runnin' 

From dive bar to bar 

Oh yeah 

Every dime in the jar comes from 

From diggin' and scratchin' 

And stealin' the gold 

From the stars 

Please, understand me 

Ain't nobody handing me 

Dimes that I keep in the jar 

When I was a young boy 

My daddy had nothin' 

Momma would save every dime 

Now mommas have nannies 

And house cleaning spannies 

And daddies will lose every time 

They don't save dimes now 

Not even dollars 

They don't save nothin' you earn 

Now I don't know how 

I'm sure in the end now 

There's some place 

Where they gonna burn 

Never got handed a dollar 

By no one and here is 

The lesson I learned 

Every dime in the jar 

Comes from runnin' 

From dive bar to bar 

Every dime in the jar comes 

From diggin' and scratchin' 

And stealin' the gold 

From the stars 

Every dime in the jar 

Comes from runnin' 

From dive bar to bar 

Oh yeah 

Every dime in the jar comes 

From diggin' and scratchin' 

And stealin' the gold 

From the stars 

Please, understand me 

Ain't nobody handing me 

Dimes that I keep in the jar 

Dimes that I keep in the jar 

Dimes that I keep in the jar 

Dimes that I keep in the jar 

Dimes that I keep in the jar
