Here's a nickel for your effort Here's a dime for the tears Here's a quarter for a song That got you through those lonely years It's a real situation Tonight I'm in one of my moods Just keep 'em coming till the Bar runs dry I'm singin' my last blues Once in a lifetime there's a chance You shouldn't pass Once in a lifetime there's a way To be your best Once in a lifetime you smell the laurels at your door As you reach for plenty You may come out empty So here's a nickel for your silence Here's a dime for my soul Here's my quarter for the ride We take to reach the golden shore Just keep rowing that boat Across this river of my fall Takes some guts to be the guide That holds your hand to nevermore Once in a lifetime there's a chance You shouldn't pass Once in a lifetime there's a way To be your best Once in a lifetime you smell the laurels at your door As you reach for plenty You may come out empty
