Dollar or Dime, either way the value is going down.

A
My friends are in jail
My girls in the lock
D
I don’t have a pail to sit on
A
My feet are too tired
My lifelines expired
E
I’m sitting on the edge of the bay
I turned the screw
Came down with the flu
I don’t have case to make
It’s a personal decision
It’s cellular division
I’m leaning on the edge of my cane
A
You’ve got to help me out
DA
I need some assistance
A
You’ve got to help me out
DE
I can’t spare a dollar or dime, not this time
My brain is a rock
My husbands are dead
I told you I was your mother
My friends are in jail
My girls in the sea
And I don’t know if she’s waiting for me
You’ve got to help me out
I’m in need some assistance
You’ve got to help me out
I don’t have a dollar or dime, not this time
My friends are in jail
My girls in the lock
I don’t have a pail to spit in
My feet are too tired
My lifelines expired
I’m sitting on the edge of the bay
I turned the screw
Came down with the flu
I don’t have to case my maker
It’s a personal decision
It’s cellular derision
I’m leaning on the edge of my cage
You’ve got to help me out
I’m in need some assistance
You’ve got to help me out
Brother can you spare a dime?
No, not this time.
