Nickel Song
Words and Music by: Melanie Safka
Performed by: Melanie (1971)
Sequenced by: Ron Tilden

Well, you know that I'm not a gambler,
But I'm bein' gambled on,
They put in a nickel and I sing a little song
Dadn da dadn da dadn da da da,
Da dadn 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 gambling 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 nickel song.

They're only puttin' in a nickel,
And they want a dollar song.
Oh yeah, they're only puttin' 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 puttin' 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.

They're only puttin' in a nickel,
And they want a dollar song.
Oh yeah, they're only puttin' in a little
To get rid of a lot that's wrong.
Oh, they're only puttin' in a nickel
To win a dollar song.
