NICKEL SONG
Melanie 
from THE GOOD BOOK album
 
Well you know that I'm not a gambler 
But I'm being gambled on 
They put in a nickel and I sing a little song 
Da-da-da-da 
They put in a nickel and I sing a little song 
 
Well, I don't mind that they're lucky 
But it seems that they always win 
And gamblin' is illegal in the state of mind I'm in 
And if I had a nickel for each time that 
I've been put on 
I would be their nickel man 
And I'd sing a little song 
 
They're only putting in a nickel and 
They want a dollar song 
They're only putting in a little to 
Get rid of a lot that's 
Wrong. 
 
Well I don't know so many things 
But I know what's been goin' on 
We're only putting in a little 
To get rid of a lot that's wrong 
And if we had a nickel for each time that 
We've been put on 
We'd all be their nickel man 
And we'd sing a nickel song 

You know they're only putting in a nickel 
And they win a dollar song 
Oh, yeah, they're only putting in a little 
To get rid of a lot that's wrong 
Oh, they're only putting in a nickel 
To win a dollar song
