Dollar Short

Paroles de « Dollar Short »

Verse 1

Late and broke, got a dollar short,
On my way to the corner store,
Went to buy a drink, but I'm in debt,
Every time I check, it’s just the same old spot.

Verse 2

Walking slow, got an hour to wait,
In the line for coffee, I’m just fate,
Every step, every breath, I'm late again,
Still laughing 'cause there's nowhere left to go.

Chorus

I’m always one dollar short, one hour late,
But I’ll keep on laughing, 'cause it’s all I've got to celebrate,
In this life of blues, with my guitar and pain,
I’m one dollar short, one hour late, but I'll keep on laughing anyway.

Bridge

In the city lights, where dreams fade and die,
I find humor in the cash that never ties,
Every time I try, I’m still just playing the game,
Laughing at the clock, as the minutes slowly name.

Chorus

I’m always one dollar short, one hour late,
But I’ll keep on laughing, 'cause it’s all I've got to celebrate,
In this life of blues, with my guitar and pain,
I’m one dollar short, one hour late, but I'll keep on laughing anyway.

Outro

Walking home through the rain, a dollar in my pocket,
Laughing at the time, it’s nothing but a joke,
Still playin' my guitar, to the end of the night,
I’m one dollar short, one hour late, but that’s alright.
