Lyrics

Working so hard for nothing
Nothing seems to matter no more
Working so hard, been working so long
And all I got to show is a dime & a song

You know that I love you baby
You know I always do
But your Daddy won't go and leave us alone
"cause he knows all I got is a dime & a song

And don't I know
It's not enough to show
I'm getting so tired
Of walking with my mind on fire

Walking down this old highway
Only 'cause I can't roll
I'm walking too far been walking too long
you know you can't roll on no dime & a song

Solo


I give it all up for you
There's nothing else I can do
I give it all up for you
You've got a heart so true...

Oh Andrea
If you call I'll come
Take me by the river one more time
Take me anywhere without no reason or rhyme
Oh Andrea
If you call I'll come
I know all I got
Is a dime & a song
But with a little love I know we'll get along
Andrea, won't c'mon Andrea
Andrea, c'mon Andrea
Andre,cmon Andrea
C'mon Andrea
Oh Andrea... won't you c'mon Andrea

Great energy, great performances, keep up the great work
