Ninety Cents

[Verse]
Ninety cents in the jar and a folded receipt
Somebody wrote thank you on the back of it
I put the coins in the drawer with the rubber bands
And the receipt somewhere I won't lose

[Chorus]
It doesn't pay the heating
It doesn't pay the phone
But I kept it, so I guess it paid for something

[Verse]
Table four left a twenty and no note at all
I liked the ninety cents better, isn't that stupid
The girl before me used to say you can't eat a compliment
She moved to the city, I hope she eats fine

[Chorus]
It doesn't pay the heating
It doesn't pay the phone
But I kept it, so I guess it paid for something

[Bridge]
I'm not making a point about money
I'm just telling you what was in the jar

[Chorus]
It doesn't pay the heating
And I kept it anyway
