lyrics

I got a sack of wooden nickels
Yakkity yak, yakkity yak
But they ain’t worth a dime
Ain’t worth jack, ain’t worth jack
I think I’d rather have a pickle
Snackity snack, snackity snack
I say it all the time
Tickity tack, tickity tack
I got a sack of wooden nickels
Hey, have you seen my wife?

Goddam this sack of wooden nickels
Hey, have you seen my wife?
