I've been sitting around
in a sad part of town
waiting for something
to trickle down

where's the news
the typical blues
the 5 dollar man
in a 10 dollar shoe

I've been thinking of you
you've got me tawn and to
going to push me in
well you pull me through

help me if I'm in your hole
I'm a 5 dollar man
and I'm seem to gone out of control

tell me this year
hangs up my little head
sort of hate to think
that I've been misled

well I gave away
all the money that I stole
now I'm 5 dollar man
I'm out of control

and straight aways
keeping out of phase
thank god I dont do
that much these days

saving up for the typical blues
the 5 dollar man
in the 10 dollar shoes

so when you're sitting around
in the sad part of town
dont forget to put the
straight on down
cause way up in that very sky
is a 5 dollar man
seem all by

tell me this year
brings what they used to be
seems like you used to get
a little bit more for me

well even the devil won't guard my soul
I've been around and around
and I'm not on a roll
and I gave away
all the money I stole
and I'm a 5 dollar man
and I'm out of control
yeah I'm lonely
lonely
