Roll over once,roll over twice
Everybody makin' sixty-six dollars tonight
I got the sixty-six dollar blues
And I could use a new pair of boots
I'm just pounding, pounding, pounding my life away

Pounding the pavement
I touched the [?]
With the ten pound note in my pocket
From the time I moved to England
Goddam my wallet's looking so thin
Said I could use another fiver
Could use another ten
Now I'm broke as Detroit
Look out Cleveland

Sixty-six dollar blues
And I could use a new pair of boots
I'm just pounding, pounding, pounding my life away

Drinking my paycheck
Ain't even buzzed yet
Ain't no woman gonna look my way
When I look like this
Welcome to the music business
It's like a monkey in a tree
Starving to death
Surrounded by bananas
With no marketing plan
