lyrics

Ten Bucks

I work hard all day to live my life this way you guesed it I am self employed. I wander around and keep tabs on the town…everybody knows my name. Like most men of the world well I’ve got a girl and she is sweet as she can be. Every day about nine I drop her a line. A different one everytime.
I called her up and I said baby…I’m in trouble with a man from a poker game. It was rigged baby, I was robbed. He’s six foot four and his name is Floyd and he’s gonna kill me unless he gets his pay. He’s gonna take a rope honey ain’t no joke he’s gonna hang me from the highest tree. Can’t you see honey you got to save me come on baby….Lone me ten bucks
Ten bucks gets me two six packs and a half a pint of old crow. I’m a damn dirty dog and I know it. And I drink em I get drunk I start to thinking and then I thunk. Well, she’s the best little girl I ever had I better give her a call.
I called her up and I said ,Baby….
There’s a man with a plan from the C.I.A. he wants to get me for espionage. Gonna take away my life with his little pen knife to take away my microfilm. So can’t you see honey it ain’t for me. Kick down for the red white and blue. Can’t you see you gotta save me come on baby,…. loan me ten bucks.
Ten bucks gets me two six packs and a half a pint of old crow. I’m a damn dirty dog and daring I know it. And I drink em I get drunk I start to thinking baby and I thunk. Well she’s the best little girl I ever had I better give her a call.
Yeah, hello baby…yeah its me….Ha, ha, ha, ha …..I’ll be right over.
