the sound recording is a little odd at first but it improves after first minute ... I promise ! sweetest version I've seen on YT ღ 5th Street & Main, Los Angeles “On the Nickel“, a wino's lullaby Lyric: It says sticks and stones can break my bones but I always will be true And when your mama's dead and gone, I'll sing this lullaby just for you ... What becomes of little boys who never say their prayers? They're sleeping like a baby on the nickel over there ... And if you chew tobacco and wish upon a star You'll find out where the scarecrows sit, man they look like punch lines between the cars. I know a place where a royal flush can never beat a pair. And even Thomas Jefferson is on the nickel and is over there ... So ring around the rosy, sleepin' in the rain. You're always late for supper and man you let me down again ... I thought I heard a mockingbird, Roosevelt knows where. I'm whistling past the graveyard, and they're on the nickel over there ... So what becomes of little boys who run away from home? The world keeps gettin' bigger once you get out on your own. So climb up through that buttonhole and fall right up the stairs I'll show you where the short dogs go, they're on the nickel and over there ... Chorus of Waltzin' Matilda at end
