Buffalo Nickel

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I walked up to the counter with a buffalo nickel Was gonna give him half, but instead he charged me triple He said it's twenty on the money What you're paying for it honey I said man you must be joking He said go ahead and try me Now he's lookin' at me funny And my nickel's laying sunny-side down [Verse 2] I hold out just to get myself a little bit corrected A hot collar isn't any way to get yourself respected And though I aim to be emphatic There's an awful lot of static 'Cause you've got a lot of heart, but your moves are enigmatic If you're acting too erratic it's my semi-automatic response [Chorus] Hey, hey, hey, hey, yeah Hey, hey, hey, hey You and I (Workin' around each other) [x7] Workin' around each other [Bridge] I got caught upset-looking like a little shadow So mad 'cause I couldn't shake the noise out of the rattle It was mean of me to say, but I meant it when I said That I guess I'll do all the work, I guess you take all the credit If you read well then you read it I'll just be a dog and shed it alright [Chorus]
