Quarter Of A Man
David Lindley - From the album El Rayo X
-----------------------------------------------------
Am / / /
There's a quarter of a man in the market
F / / /
With a quarter of a car so its easy to park it
Am / / F
He gets to the counter he saves what he can
Am / / F
But he only saves a quarter he's a quarter of a man
.......................
Now this quarter of a man he got fired
The next damn day he got hired hired
The only thing wrong with this plan
He only gets a quarter he's a quarter of man
CHORUS
Am Em C G Am
Every day he's on the street
Am Em C G Am
Too few quarters to live or to eat
Am Em C G Am
He's so little the people all stare
F
But he only pays a quarter fare
Am F
Oh......
Now the quarter of a man's on vacation
But he still gets his ration
When he gets to the market he pays what he can
But he only pays a quarter he's a quarter of a man
CHORUS
