Old Five and Dimers Like Me

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 --- Old Five and Dimers Like Me - Emmylou Harris
