Todd Snider lyrics : "In Between Jobs"

If I had a nickel
For every dime you had
I'd have half of your money

You talk about not half bad
More like ten times as good
I don't know anyone that wouldn't wanna hold on

To all they had if they could

If you could just come off a little bit of money though

That would surely do me good

I'm in between jobs


Can you dig it? I knew that you could
Can you dig it? I was hopin' you would


There's only one way to win this shell game
Be the one that gets the other guy to play

You think I'm not very bright
And you might be right
I might've been born yesterday

But I was up all night
I mighta come in here a little blindside lookin' but
I still see light

It may be through cheap sunglasses but
Still shines as bright down on ya when ya
In between jobs


Can you dig it? I knew that you could
Can you dig it? I was hopin' you would


I seen a hundred dollar bill one time
Blowin' up against a chain link fence

I been walkin' around outside
Lookin' down at fences ever since
It's the root of all evil, I agree

And I suppose the blossom
Would be my kinda poverty
I know how mad I'm gettin' just

Knowin' how much more you've got than me
I'm thinkin'
what's keepin' me from killin' this guy

And takin' his %#@!?

Can you dig it?
