Nickeltown Lyrics by The Kennedys

Get it Right

0

She had her eye on Egyptian gold
And when she turned eighteen years old
With just a dream and a Vegas vow
He took her down to Nickeltown
They played the slots and they waited for the day
They'd hit the double diamond, five times pay
And when the sevens came, they drank it down
And took it to the streets of Nickeltown
They learned their lesson when they started to lose
They cashed it in, and they paid their dues
And the courtroom rang with the gavel's sound
Just another day in Nickeltown
Now he's thumbing to the promised land
He's got the Bible in his other hand
'Cause he saw the light, now he's glory bound
He's saving souls in Nickeltown
She's going gray, and she's slow on her feet
She pawned that ring down on Fremont Street
But she's doing all right, and she gets around
Down on the streets of Nickeltown
