King's Folly - $9 Lyrics

Just made my first nine dollars
Playing out in the street
I didn't sound real proper
But it made me feel complete
Just walkin' with my ukulele in hand
Enjoyin' the weather outside
I was asked if I could play but I had no plan
So I played Habits for this guy

I don't care what you play just pick a good one
Friend's sayin' you should go and play one of your songs
If I said I wasn't nervous I'd be lyin' I would be wrong
Counted 4, 3, 2, 1 and then I begun

I jammed and played I sang my heart out
I messed up some notes but I had fun no doubt
9 bucks is enough to make me smile
Until this is over I can't play for awhile

I'll be honest I've been havin' some money problems
I just quit my job so it's my fault but I'm feelin' awesome
Cause now I get to grind on this music get the bops droppin'
Only downfall is I got no money in my wallet
I just started a starvin' artists is what I am
But this quarantine's preventing me from playing my jam's
And even though I only got to play for just one man
It still made me happy yeah I don't give a - wait I don't curse

I don't care what you play just pick a good one
Friend's sayin' you should go and play one of your songs
If I said I wasn't nervous I'd be lyin' I would be wrong
Counted 4, 3, 2, 1 and then I begun

I jammed and played I sang my heart out
I messed up some notes but I had fun no doubt
9 bucks is enough to make me smile
Until this is over I can't play for awhile

Just made my first nine dollars
Playing out in the street
I didn't sound real proper
But it made me feel complete
Just walkin' with my ukulele in my hand
Enjoyin' the weather outside
I was asked if I could play but I had no plan
So I played Habits for this guy

I jammed and played I sang my heart out
I messed up some notes but I had fun no doubt
9 bucks is enough to make me smile
Until this is over I can't play for awhile
