Written by:Barry De Vo[00:00:01]
Say brother can I borrow a thin brother[00:00:09]
You know a dime[00:00:16]
Say say say sis[00:00:25]
Sure would like to some dimes for me[00:00:29]
So I can get this cup of coffee[00:00:31]
Cop me a snack or[00:00:33]
I guess I better quit trying to be hip and get on down[00:00:39]
Hey man like you know[00:00:46]
I was born in New York City on a Monday[00:00:47]
It seems I was out shining shoes by Tuesday noon[00:00:53]
All the fat cats in the bad hats doing me a real big favor[00:00:58]
Got the fat cats in the bad hats laying it on real good[00:01:04]
Here's a dime give me a shine boy[00:01:09]
When the cold wind comes it lives at New York City[00:01:22]
And the street's no place to be but there you are[00:01:27]
So you try hard or you die hard[00:01:33]
No one really gives a good damn[00:01:36]
You try hard and you die hard[00:01:39]
No one gives a damn[00:01:42]
Here's a dime boy give me a shine boy[00:01:44]
Down and out in New York City[00:01:50]
Ain't nowhere to be but where can you go[00:01:55]
When you're down and out in New York City[00:02:01]
I'm never never never gonna get that way again[00:02:06]
No no no[00:02:13]
No no not me[00:02:16]
When you need a friend[00:02:25]
Need to have a[00:02:28]
When you want a friend[00:02:31]
Going to get myself together until the morning[00:02:34]
Going to leave it all like one bad dream[00:02:40]
All the fat cats in the bad hats doing me a real big favor[00:02:45]
Got the fat cats in the bad hats laying it on real good[00:02:50]
Here's a dime give me a shine boy[00:02:56]
