Lyrics
I need a dollar, dollar, dollar, that's what I need (hey, hey)
Well, I need a dollar, dollar, dollar, that's what I need (hey, hey)
Said I need a dollar, dollar, dollar, that's what I need
And if I share with you my story, would you share your dollar with me?
Bad times are comin', and I reap what I done sowed (hey, hey)
Well, let me tell you somethin', all that glitters ain't gold (hey, hey)
It's been a long old trouble, long old troublesome road
And I'm looking for somebody, come and help me carry this load
I need a dollar, dollar, dollar, that's what I need (hey, hey)
Well, I need a dollar, dollar, dollar, that's what I need
Well, I don't know if I'm walking on solid ground
'Cause everything around me is falling down
And all I want is for someone to help me
I had a job, but the boss man let me go (he said)
"I'm sorry, but I won't be needing your help no more" (I said)
"Please, Mister Boss man, I need this job more than you know"
But he gave me my last paycheck, and he sent me on out the door
Well, I need a dollar, dollar, dollar, that's what I need (hey, hey)
Said, I need a dollar, dollar, dollar, that's what I need (hey, hey)
And I need a dollar, dollar, dollar, that's what I need
And if I share with you my story, would you share your dollar with me?
Well, I don't know if I'm walking on solid ground
'Cause everything around me is crumbling down
And all I want is for someone to help me
What in the world am I gonna to do tomorrow
Is there someone whose dollar that I can borrow
Who can help me take away my sorrow
Maybe it's inside the bottle
(Maybe it's inside the bottle)
I had some good old buddies, names is Whiskey and Wine (hey, hey)
And for my good old buddies, I spent my last dime (hey, hey)
Now Wine is good to me, help me pass the time
And my good old buddy Whiskey keep me warmer than the sunshine (hey, hey)
Your mama may have blessed the child that's got his own (hey, hey)
If God has plans for me, I hope it ain't written in stone (hey, hey)
Because I've been working, working myself down to the bone
And I swear on Grandpa's grave, I'll be paid when I come home (hey, hey)
Well, I need a dollar, dollar, dollar, that's what I need (hey, hey)
Said I need a dollar, dollar, dollar, that's what I need (hey, hey)
Well, I need a dollar, dollar, dollar, that's what I need (hey, hey)
And if I share with you my story, would you share your dollar with me?
Come on, share your dollar with me
Go 'head, share your dollar with me
Come on, share your dollar, give me your dollar
Share your dollar with me
Come on, share your dollar with me
