WELL, YOU KNOW
THAT I'M NOT A GAMBLER
BUT I'M BEIN' GAMBLED ON
THEY PUT IN A NICKEL
AND I SING A LITTLE SONG
DA-UN-DA, DA-UN-DA
DA-UN-DA-DA-DA
BA-DA-UN-DA-DA-UN-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 LIKE
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 THE NICKEL MAN
AND I'D SING THE NICKEL SONG
DA-UN-DA, DA-UN-DA
DA-UN-DA-DA-DA
BA-DA-UN-DA-DA-UN-DA-DA-DA
THEY PUT IN A NICKEL
AND I SING A LITTLE SONG
THEY'RE ONLY
PUTTIN' IN A NICKEL
AND THEY WANT A DOLLAR SONG
THEY'RE ONLY
PUTTIN' IN A NICKEL
AND THEY WANT A DOLLAR SONG
WELL, YOU KNOW
I DON'T KNOW SO MANY THINGS
BUT I KNOW
WHAT'S BEEN GOIN' ON
WE'RE ONLY PUTTIN' 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 THE NICKEL MAN
AND WE'D SING A NICKEL SONG
SING THE NICKEL SONG!
DA... DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA...
THEY PUT IN A NICKEL
AND I SING A LITTLE SONG
YOU KNOW THEY'RE ONLY
PUTTIN' IN A NICKEL
AND THEY WANT A DOLLAR SONG
YEAH... THEY'RE ONLY
PUTTIN' IN A NICKEL
AND THEY WANT A DOLLAR
OH, THEY WANT A DOLLAR SONG
TO THINK OF BETTER TIMES
YEAH-LA-DA-DA-DA...
CAN'T EVEN AFFORD A DIME
HA-HA!
SUCH A LOVELY LITTLE SONG
WELL, NOW THAT'S HOT, HA!
JUST PUT IN A NICKEL
LA... DA-LA-DA-DA-DA...
LA-DA-DA-DA-DA...

JUST A NICKEL AT A TIME
AND LA-DA-LA-DA-YA-DA
