joseph huber – drop in the bucket lyrics
[verse 1]
i’ve been working my way to the center of the wheel
i’ve been working my way west between two thin lines of steel
i got a hole in each pocket and another in my heel
from singin’ and dancin’ for a dollar and a meal
[verse 2]
i step out on the sidewalk, the concrete’s gettin’ cold
the red lights and the green lights, they turn to flashin’ gold
i got one more call from home telling me i’m gettin’ old
yeah but i still got a tune or two down here in my soul
[chorus]
and a drop in the bucket is all i need
to get on home and back on my feet
lord, i’ve been on the street
tryin’ to earn a dime
sure a drop in the bucket is all i’ll be
so hammer down on the banjo strings
and open up this empty street
just to try and earn a dime
[verse 3]
well, the street lights a-fl!cker and the flies gather ’round
while the poor folks gather ’round that high-lonesome sound
well i wish i was the light but my feet are on the ground
so i’ll just keep on sliding right in and out of town
[chorus]
and a drop in the bucket is all i need
to get on home and back on my feet
lord, i’ve been on the street
tryin’ to earn a dime
sure a drop in the bucket is all i’ll be
so hammer down on the banjo strings
and open up this empty street
just to try and earn a dime
[verse 4]
throw down your quarters and let me be your well
i’d be a mighty fine one as far as i can tell
with a bucket full of dreams, all forgotten once they fell
for the things that you can’t buy and a song i’ll never sell
[chorus]
and a drop in the bucket is all i need
to get on home and back on my feet
lord, i’ve been on the street
tryin’ to earn a dime
sure a drop in the bucket is all i’ll be
so hammer down on the banjo strings
and open up this empty street
just to try and earn a dime
