Nickel Song - Nana Mouskouri

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
