Nickels And Dimes Lyrics - Dolly Parton

(Dolly Parton/Floyd Parton) 

I used to stand on a corner when I was a child 

And I'd play my guitar and sing as the people went by 

The sidewalks were crowded but I'd just sing louder cause I didn't mind 

Just spending my time, spinning my rhymes and singing for nickels and dimes 

Nickels and dimes a song at a time for nickels and dimes 

I'd brighten their day as they go on their way and they'd brighten mine 

A sidewalk rehearsal for dreams that I held in my mind 

I knew that someday in my own special I'd repay all their nickels and dimes

I recall the sidewalk each night as I stand on the stage 

As I play my guitar and sing for the people who paid 

Cause I finally made it to what they all call the big time 

But I still remember I still owe some nickels and dimes 

Nickels and dimes a song at a time for nickels and dimes 

A sidewalk rehearsal for dreams that I held in my mind 

So if you remember a child on the corner of time 

You'll know that I wrote this to repay your nickels and dimes 

Nickels and dimes a song at a time for nickels and dimes 

A sidewalk rehearsal for dreams that I held in my mind 

So if you remember a child on a corner of time 

You'll know that I wrote this to repay your nickels and dimes
