I need a dollar, a dollar
A dollar that's what I need (hey hey)
Well I need a dollar, a dollar
A dollar that's what I need (hey hey)
Said I need a dollar, a dollar
A dollar that's what I need
And if I share with you my story
Would you share your dollar with me ?
Bad times are coming
And I reap what I done sown (hey hey)
Well let me tell you something:
All that glitters ain't gold (hey hey)
It's been a long old trouble
A long old troublesome road
And I'm looking for somebody
Come and help me carry this load
I need a dollar, a dollar
A dollar that's what I need (hey hey)
Well I need a dollar, a dollar
A 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 (eeeh)
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 Mr. 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, a dollar
A dollar that's what I need (hey hey)
Said I need a dollar, a dollar
A dollar that's what I need (hey hey)
And I need a dollar, a dollar
A 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 (eeeh)
