_ Well I went on down to the corner store just to get a little [A] bottle of pills
Cause the [N] man on the television told [A] me there's a cure for all [F] my ills
Well I walked on up to the counter and I told him what I had
Now he said you ain't got no money, you can't afford to be feelin' so bad
Oh can you spare a nickel brother, can you spare a dime?
[D] Need a couple more dollars now [E] just to get me on down [A] the line
_ _ _ Hey there, [E] how you doin' ask the folks, I tell them all the same thing
All black and broke and they think that's a joke but I ain't playin'
It's a whole lotta truth to what I'm sayin'
See my bones crack and I'm so pro-black and I got so many bills and they ain't no stacks
Hey there Kojak, suckin' on your lollipop, think I [D] can get a ride over to the trolley stop
I just left one job, [Am] tryin' to hit the next one
Doin' what I can do so I can get these checks done
You can keep the weed and dank the max, I'm tryin' to get golden green in my bank account
So I turn up the tempo, hit the studio in full rock camp mode
Plus I'm tryin' to stay out [A] of the court cause my ex-wife got me for the child support
Well I went down to the bodega just to [F] get a little Mountain Dew
[A] When I opened up my [Am] wallet there was nothin' but a high on [F#] you
Well I told my situation, I asked him [F#] what he got for me
[A] He said I got this knuckle sandwich and I'll give it to you for free
Oh can you spare a nickel brother, can you spare a dime?
[D] Need a couple more dollars now [E] just to get me on [A] down the line

From [E] red dirt out to red hook, I've been rockin' mic since before there was a Fed book
The left hook, the reason why your man got his head shook
From the PJs where Fisifi get your bread took
[E] Concrete floors made it chilly when the sun [A] down
Somehow we all made it out from the run down
Proper plan for gettin' played for a dumb clown
Took the last travel roll, standin' out amongst crowds
Old head with the fire of a jit
Mo' heads you can tell they a [Am] liar when they spit
Ball heads on one plex with the lion in his kit
Soft set is really nothin' if you blind with the fifth, huh
I'm cookin' cast iron in the pit
Your bread ain't really thick if all you buyin' is a fit
I cut it up in sections then I fry em' till it's crisp
It's easier to live a little more than required for the fix
Well I could [E] not pay my ticket, and I could not pay my bail
Well the judge couldn't pay [A] me the time of day, and he throwed my ass in jail
Well they [G] gave me a nickel [A] and a dime, and they [F#] placed them upon my eyes
[A] For it cost much more to keep me here than it did to let me die
Oh can you spare a nickel, brother?
Can you spare a dime?
[D] _ Leave a couple more dollars, then just get me [A] on down the line
Oh I said can you spare a nickel, brother?
Can you spare a dime?
[D] Leave a couple more dollars, then [E] just get me on [A] down the line _ _ _ _
