There are windows on the water
Lighting up the silver strand
Shining on the sea
Shining on the sea
And the ocean's just a player
On an old piano
Who repeats one melody
Who repeats one melody
Chorus
Hustlin' nickels and dimes
I belong on the shore
Before it's gone
'Cause it ain't long
You might as well have a good time
Well the elbows of his jacket
Are blue and shiny
Drunk and gone to seed
He's drunk and gone to seed
And he mumbles as he plays
The only song he knows
It's the only song he knows
It's the only song he needs
Chorus
Hustlin' nickels and dimes
I belong on the shore
Before it's gone
'Cause it ain't long
You might as well have a good time
All his restless music
Don't mean a damn thing to me
The shallow or the deep
Said, the shallow or the deep
We'll go out together
And party 'til we sleep
So if you're free this evening
Party 'til we sleep
Chorus
I belong on the shore
Hustlin' nickels and dimes
Before it's gone
'Cause it ain't long
You might as well have a good time
Lyrics by Judy Henske, Music by Craig Doerge There are windows on the water Lighting up the silver strand Shining on the sea Shining on the sea And the ocean's just a player On an old piano Who repeats one melody Who repeats one melody Chorus Hustlin' nickels and dimes I belong on the shore Before it's gone 'Cause it ain't long You might as well have a good time Well the elbows of his jacket Are blue and shiny Drunk and gone to seed He's drunk and gone to seed And he mumbles as he plays The only song he knows It's the only song he knows It's the only song he needs Chorus Hustlin' nickels and dimes I belong on the shore Before it's gone 'Cause it ain't long You might as well have a good time All his restless music Don't mean a damn thing to me The shallow or the deep Said, the shallow or the deep We'll go out together And party 'til we sleep So if you're free this evening Party 'til we sleep Chorus I belong on the shore Hustlin' nickels and dimes Before it's gone 'Cause it ain't long You might as well have a good time Explain Request ×
