Lyrics
*Sittin' in my pick-up truck...waiting for... the light to change
Wondering how, We got this way...All these years... sure seems strange
Each day, as I look back...I would change... and rearrange
Chorus
But I don't...Have time...to waste
Cause I'm a...Double Nickel...I was young just yesterday
I'm a..Double Nickel...and the time keeps a slipp'in away
I'm a ...Double Nickel...Living life as comes today
I'm a..Double Nickel...Lord see me through another Day
*In line at the grocery store...waiting for...to be my turn
Thinking of the much lost Love...Hoping that... It might return
Better love... have lost...without Love...will pay the cost
*Standing at the Elevator...waiting for...the two way ride
Looking back on my Child like youth...Feeling good...
and being alive
Those were the days, my Friend...standing tall... and knowing it all
