Todd Snider lyrics : "In Between Jobs"
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?
