Song | A Nickel For The Fiddler |
Artist | The Everly Brothers |
Album | Pass The Chicken & Listen |
It's a nickel for the fiddler | |
It's a nickel for his tune | |
It's a nickel for the tambourine kind of afternoon. | |
And it's a high holiday on the twenty-first of June | |
And it's country music in the park and everybody's ruined | |
It's fountains full of dogs and kids | |
And it's streaky apple pie. | |
It's the ones who came to play | |
And the ones just passin' by | |
It's coats of many colours | |
And it almost makes me cry | |
It's ice cream on a stick | |
And it's somethin' you can’t buy | |
It's a fiddler from Kentucky | |
Who swears he's eighty three | |
And he's fiddled every contest | |
From here to Cripple Creek | |
It's old ones and it's young ones | |
And it's plain they have agreed | |
And it's country music in the park | |
As far as they can see | |
It's a nickel for the fiddler | |
It's a nickel for his tune | |
It's a nickel for the tambourine kind of afternoon. | |
And it's a high holiday on the twenty-first of June | |
And it's country music in the park and everybody's ruined |
It' s a nickel for the fiddler | |
It' s a nickel for his tune | |
It' s a nickel for the tambourine kind of afternoon. | |
And it' s a high holiday on the twentyfirst of June | |
And it' s country music in the park and everybody' s ruined | |
It' s fountains full of dogs and kids | |
And it' s streaky apple pie. | |
It' s the ones who came to play | |
And the ones just passin' by | |
It' s coats of many colours | |
And it almost makes me cry | |
It' s ice cream on a stick | |
And it' s somethin' you can' t buy | |
It' s a fiddler from Kentucky | |
Who swears he' s eighty three | |
And he' s fiddled every contest | |
From here to Cripple Creek | |
It' s old ones and it' s young ones | |
And it' s plain they have agreed | |
And it' s country music in the park | |
As far as they can see | |
It' s a nickel for the fiddler | |
It' s a nickel for his tune | |
It' s a nickel for the tambourine kind of afternoon. | |
And it' s a high holiday on the twentyfirst of June | |
And it' s country music in the park and everybody' s ruined |
