Once I got a nickel raise.
I guess I wasn't worth a dime.
But I really didn't notice,
our hours varied all the time.
The boss came up to me and said,
"I've given you a nickel raise."
I said, "I'm truly thankful sir,
for your generous, kindly ways.".
Then I started crying,
and said through grateful tears,
"Now I can finally get that loaf of bread,
I've saved for all these years! ".
Its taken tears to save for a loaf. Man thats tough. Lol
