This is a great song...I first heard it while roaming around the country a while back. To me this song sounds a lot like someone who is unemployed and looking for work all over, but maybe that's just my personal experiences coming through.

A note/hunch regarding the second verse: I'm interpreting the "dime" not as money, but a dime bag of pot. Sounds like some "good-time friends" I've known.
