Spend 'em on my sweetie, or use 'em in a fight
Spend 'em on my sweetie, or SOCK someone with 'em in a fight
They'll scare off the bad dogs
But treat a lady right

Yeah, with SOCKS o' quarters I can treat a lady right
Yes, fend off the bad dogs and then treat my lady right
Then when there are no more quarters
They'll make my aching dogs feel all right
