Buck Owens - Nugget Lament Lyrics
Well I went to the nugget with my pockets full of money
Big ole diamond rings on my hand
I rolled into town, in a big long Cadillac
I was a man with a plan
And threw down a hundred dollar bill
Bakersfield, I'm on my way
Dear old daddy, come through again
They took my bankroll, my diamond rings, my Cadillac
But the thing that hurt the most about the whole danged act
Was the audacity, to smile and say... please hurry back!
So I called up my buddy, and said "lend me some money"
For I could feel a hot streak coming on
Dear old daddy, come through again
Alas,
They took my bankroll, my diamond rings, my Cadillac
Had the audacity, to smile and say... please hurry back!
But the thing that hurt the most about the whole danged act
Was when he grinned, said let's be friends... well I thought I'd choke
For if I ever need, a friend again... I'll buy a dog!
