Nickel Song Lyrics - Photograph - Melanie

Well, you know that I'm not a gambler but I'm being gambled on 

They put in a nickel and I sing a little song, da da, da da 

They put in a nickel and I sing a little song 

Well, I don't mind that they're lucky but it seems that they always win 

And gamblin' is illegal in the state of mind I'm in 

And if I had a nickel for each time that I've been put on 

I would be their nickel man and I'd sing a little song 

They're only putting in a nickel and they want a dollar song 

They're only putting in a little to get rid of a lot that's wrong 

Well, I don't know so many things but I know what's been goin' on 

We're only putting in a little to get rid of a lot that's wrong 

And if we had a nickel for each time that we've been put on 

We'd all be their nickel man and we'd sing a nickel song
