Aloe Blacc - Essential R&B - The Clubmix

I Need a Dollar - Zinc Remix (Edit)

I need a dollar, dollar, a dollar is what I need, hey, hey
Well, I need a dollar, dollar, a dollar is what I need, hey, hey
Said I need dollar, dollar, a dollar is 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 don't sow, 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

I need a dollar, dollar, a dollar is what I need, hey, hey
Well, I need a dollar, dollar, a dollar is 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, a dollar is what I need, hey, hey
Said I need a dollar, dollar, a dollar is what I need, hey, hey
And I need a dollar, dollar, a dollar is 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 with a dollar that I can borrow?
Who can help me take away my sorrow?
Maybe its inside the bottle, maybe its inside the bottle

I had some good old buddy, his names is Whiskey and Wine, hey, hey
And for my good old buddy I spent my last dime, hey, hey
My wine is good to me, it helps me pass the time
And my good old buddy Whiskey keeps me warmer than the sunshine
Hey, hey

Your mom of mayhem just a child has 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 grandpas grave, I'll be paid when I come home, hey, hey

Well, I need a dollar, dollar, a dollar is what I need, hey, hey
Said I need a dollar, dollar, a dollar is what I need, hey, hey
Well, I need a dollar, dollar, a dollar is what I need
And if I share with you my story, will you share your dollar with me?

Come on, share your dollar with me
Go ahead, 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
