lyrics

Almighty Dollar

by Michael Solan



You only loved me, all my money - I don’t mind, I don’t mind

You come runnin’ when I get paid, I get paid, I get paid

I went home to see my family, all they had to really say

Was my son, where is all your money, what will you do after today



I ain’t got a penny man, never mind a dollar

There’s a girl at the bank that’ll do what I tell her

I don’t know how I’m a get by, the way I’ve been living I’m liable to die

Ain’t no telling what I’m a gonna do

Probably cash that check and give it right back to you



The grass is green across the valley, the sun is gold as a doubloon
Come starry diamonds, we’ll all be lined in the sliver lining of the moon

Sure as my face wore a check so blank, they danced together, made a daisy chain

On the horizon that keeps on smiling in that peculiar way, I’ll make my way



I ain’t got a penny man, never mind a dollar

There’s a girl at the bank that’ll do what I tell her

I don’t know how I’m a get by, the way I’ve been living I’m liable to die

Ain’t no telling what I’m a gonna do

Probably cash that check and give it right back to you



Say that you want me, say that you need me
Say that you love me, you don’t wanna live without me

Come on babe, say you will 



Oh, glory came and went in such a hurry

I wish so many moments just to stay

Before the feeling’s gone, them hands and seconds take their turn
Now I yearn for her to come some other day

(Say you will)



Don’t you worry, I got your money Rory
You’ve been so kind to let me borrow

Such a friend indeed, thank you kindly for the time I need
I’ll see you have your money by tomorrow

(Say you will)



I ain’t got a penny man, never mind a dollar

There’s a girl at the bank that’ll do what I tell her

I don’t know how I’m a get by, the way I’ve been living I’m liable to die

Ain’t no telling what I’m a gonna do

Probably cash that check and give it right back to you
