I ain't got a nickel to call mine The government has made me pay my tax on time They've taken all my bread and left me here for dead I ain't even got a lousy dime Who the hell wants money When there ain't none to be had It don't make the good times better It don't make the bad times bad Well, you find out who your friends are When you ain't got a dime Just trying to make the best of these hard times I've got fifteen cars and I can't afford the gas We've got a horse but how long can she last My managers enraged, my banker stands there days Funny how the money goes so fast Who the hell wants money When there ain't none to be had It don't make the good times better It don't make the bad times bad Well, you find out who your friends are When you ain't got a dime Just trying to make the best of these hard times We are broke but we've been broke before But being broke don't scare us anymore My daddy's broke and grandpa too But I'm still here to sing for you We are going to make it through for sure Well, you find out who your friends are When you ain't got a dime Just trying to make the best of these hard times
