A Good Night

I watch how I spend my nickels and dimes

I try to get by living day-to-day

I rely on the check in the mail

Yes, on my social security pay

Would my mind be more at rest

If I possessed abundant wealth

The elite are busy shepherding their money

Does this worry bother their health

Would I want to be one of the crème de la crème

Awake all night chasing my sheep

No, I’ll continue to watch my nickels and dimes

I value much more a good night’s sleep!
