It's too late to try to win my love again.
That race is run, go on and cry to your new man.
The old dime sure is lighter than a nickel in your hand,
but think it over,
I think you'd better count again.
You traded a dime for a nickel when you let me down for him.
Traded a man for a player when you fooled around with sin.
And now you're gone,
yes you're gone,
and won't be back no more.
Well, a dime for a nickel,
I hope you found what you were looking for.
A tall and handsome stranger led your heart astray,
and now you're gone,
so is the love you threw away.
The grass is always greener in the neighbor's yard.
You tried to roam, left me alone,
hurting so hard.
You traded a dime for a nickel when you let me down
for him.
Traded a man for a player when you fooled around with sin.
And now you're gone,
yes you're gone,
and won't be back no more.
Well, a dime for a nickel,
I hope
you found
what you were looking for.
