[Chorus]
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?

[Verse 1]
Bad times are coming and I reap what I done sowed (Hey, hey)
Well, let me tell you something, 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

[Chorus]
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

[Break]
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
[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
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 dollar, dollar
Dollar, that's what I need
And if I share with you my story would you share your dollar with me?

[Break]
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

[Bridge]
What in the world am I gonna do tomorrow?
Is there someone with a dollar I could borrow?
Who can help me take away my sorrow?
Maybe it's inside the bottle
(Maybe it's inside the bottle)
[Verse 3]
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, he help me pass the time
And my good old buddy Whiskey keep me warmer than 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)

[Chorus]
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 dollar, dollar
Dollar, that's what I need
And if I share with you my story would you share your dollar with me?
(C'mon share your dollar with me
Go 'head, share your dollar with me
C'mon share your dollar, gimme your dollar
Share your dollar with me
C'mon share your dollar with me)
