jackyl - mister can you spare a dime lyrics
all right people, step right up
don’t be afraid to throw that change
me and my buddy gonna play you a tune
goes something like this
i got a friend that lives in the city, in new york city
puts a brown bag under his arm
walks down the street till he gets into a big box
crawls inside and has a sea, t in a cardboard box
in the city, new york city stop
two, three, four
he always finds the cheap wine
its liquid heat but it makes a meal
finally takes a drink and he shakes his head
no, life’s not pretty in the city, new york city
life’s ladder is so hard to climb
so won’t you spare a moment of your time
i’ll do a dance, sing you a rhyme
and say, ‘hey mister, can you spare a dime?’
well, i’m standing on the edge of insanity
looking over the edge
things look greener on the other side
sit around and worry about things
wonder why, till i literally breakdown and cry
and it seems as though i’ve reached out
and slapped the world on the b-lls
grabbed it by the throat
slammed it up against the wall
life’s ladder is so hard to climb
so won’t you spare a moment of your time
i’ll do a dance, sing you a rhyme
and say, ‘hey mister, can you spare a dime?’
take it on back to georgia boys, yeah
mr worley
so if you’re looking down on me
don’t like what you see
i’ve been around a time or two
and i’ll make a fool of you
and so what if i reached out
and slapped the world on the b-lls
grab me by the throat
and slam me up against the wall
life’s ladder is so hard to climb
so won’t you spare a moment of your time
i’ll do a dance, sing you a rhyme
and say, hey mister, hey mister
life’s ladder is so hard to climb
so won’t you spare a moment of your time
i’ll do a dance, sing you a rhyme
and say, ‘hey mister, hhey mister, hey mister, can you spare a dime’
give it up
