About this episode
Another week, another heartbreak
0:00
Monday morning, bell did chime
0:03
Saw a little green, thought 'this time's mine'
0:07
Felt that old familiar thrill
0:11
Like a man on top of a lonely hill
0:15
Tuesday smiled, a gentle climb
0:19
Felt like I was makin' up for lost time
0:23
Bought my baby a brand new dress
0:27
Thought I'd finally cleaned up this whole mess
0:31
Oh, the ticker's a lover with a heart of stone
0:35
Gives you a kiss then leaves you all alone
0:39
Yeah, the Dow Jones boogie and the NASDAQ blues
0:43
Payin' for my gains with my worn-out shoes
0:47
One step forward and two steps back
0:51
That green line's a train on a broken track
0:55
Wednesday came, the sky turned gray
0:59
That pretty profit just faded away
1:03
Thursday hit me like a slammin' door
1:07
Watched my darlin' sink right through the floor
1:11
That new dress money, Lord it's gone
1:15
Same old story, same old song
1:19
Staring at the red like a fresh new wound
1:22
Another good intention in the ground
1:26
Oh, the ticker's a lover with a heart of stone
1:30
Gives you a kiss then leaves you all alone
1:34
Yeah, the Dow Jones boogie and the NASDAQ blues
1:38
Payin' for my gains with my worn-out shoes
1:42
One step forward and two steps back
1:46
That green line's a train on a broken track
1:50
Thirty years I've watched this screen
1:54
This flickerin', cruel, and heartless machine
1:58
You'd think by now a man would learn
2:02
There's no sure thing at every turn
2:06
But every time I see that spark of green
2:10
I'm the biggest fool you've ever seen
2:14
Oh, the ticker's a lover with a heart of stone
2:18
Gives you a kiss then leaves you all alone
2:22
Yeah, the Dow Jones boogie and the NASDAQ blues
2:26
Payin' for my gains with my worn-out shoes
2:30
One step forward and two steps back
2:34
That green line's a train on a broken track
