Life On The Nickel (Live on Letterman)

Yet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling

Yet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling

Yet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling

But I can't seem to catch a dime

Take a little hit and I lose the timeI took the man and his horse

And ran before he looked up

I said the light's gonna change

But I'm calm and feeling warm

And now I'm sticking out my hands

And feeling weightless againYou got to push, got to shove

I've got to eat before they eat me

Got the crown and the cup

I've got to write to my family

And say, "I'm calm and feeling warm."

I'm not quite there, but I'm close

And it's a world of a differenceYet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling

Yet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling

Yet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling

But I can't seem to catch a dime

Take a little hit and I lose the timeI've got the worst all behind me

Yeah they'll never be able to find me

I'm the king of the city

I'm a roach and they're all primates

This is meal time

Real life

I'm not gonna fight

No, I'm gonna start a warI've been right

I've been wrong

My smokes have come and gone

I've been crazy

Been fed enough to not wind up dead

And I'm lonely

My eyes have been closed to the world

'Cause the world's got nothing for meYet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling

Yet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling

Yet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling

But I can't seem to catch a dime

Take a little hit and I lose the timeYet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling

Yet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling

Yet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling

But I can't seem to catch a dime

Take a little hit and I lose the timeYet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling

Yet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling

Yet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling
