Letra David Lindley - From The Album El Rayo X de David Lindley original

-----------------------------------------------------

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
