Gerard Kenny (Singer/songwriter, pianist)

The songs of Gerard Kenny and Drey Shepperd

Nickels and dimes Nickels and dimes that you pass the hat for Nickels and dimes for the singer's song Nobody climbs in a song like that for Nickels and dimes just to get along It must be love, That he's thinking of While be plays, Lord knows it only pays him Nickels and dimes when he sings with passion Nickels and dimes for his tired throat How many times did he have to cash in Nickels and dimes the the songs be wrote When every word, Was a word he heard, In his heart How could he know, How could he know When he was so, Young and naive There would be nights, Lyrical nights, He couldn't leave He stayed on, And played on Nickels and dimes for your entertainment Nickels and dimes for his self-respect Beautiful rhymes in a sad refrain meant Nickels and dimes for another Brecht That nobody knew, Or would listen to Back then, When, Hundreds of times Rhythms and rhymes Meant nickels and dimes - again music: Gerard W.
