Old Five And Dimers Like Me

Emmylou Harris

Composed by: Billy Joe Shaver
I spent a lifetime making up my mind to be 
More than the measure of what I thought others could see 
Good luck and fast bucks are too far and too few between 
Cadillac buyers and old five and dimers like me 

Yes she stood beside me letting me know she would be 
Something to lean on when everything ran out on me 
Fenced yards ain't hole cards and like is not never will be 
Reason for rhymers and old five and dimers like me 

It's taken me so long but now that I know I believe 
All that I do or say all that I ever will be 
Too far and too high and too deep ain't too much to be 
Too much ain't enough for old five and dimers like me 

Too far and too high and too deep ain't too much to be 
Too much ain't enough for old five and dimers like me 
And an old five and dimer is all I intended to be
