Dollar

LukeCoomer



Dollar

Chorus
Do you got a dollar I can borrow
I'm just trying to drown my sorrow
In the bottom of a bottle
Don't want to think about tomorrow

Verse one
Yeah, I messed up big
What gives?
I lost my wife and my kids
As you can guess it was my fault honestly
Not really sitting here drowning on modesty
The dog got out, got hit by a car
And I grab my guitar
And hit the closest bar
I hopped on the struggle bus
Take me to the other side of Columbus
Down on my luck
Here's to a life full of suck

Chorus
Do you got a dollar I can borrow
I'm just trying to drown my sorrow
In the bottom of a bottle
Don't want to think about tomorrow

Verse two
Yeah, I lost my job at shop
Got sick of pushing the mop
Child support took my whole check
Now I behind on my rent
I just need to keep drinking
Trying to drown out the thinking
Sitting here at the bar
Strumming on my guitar
Just need another dollar for a shot
I swear it's all that I want
All I have is right now
And I sing it out loud

Chorus
Do you got a dollar I can borrow
I'm just trying to drown my sorrow
In the bottom of a bottle
Don't want to think about tomorrow

Chorus
Do you got a dollar I can borrow
I'm just trying to drown my sorrow
In the bottom of a bottle
Don't want to think about tomorrow
