Lyrics

DOLLAR BILL  (copyright 2007 by lonnie crash)


 2/4 country shuffle

  C
  I was taking a walk one day

   C
  when I saw me a dollar bill

              D       G             C
  just laying there, just a laying there

  C
  I took it to the candy shop

  C
  to buy me a stick of gum

                      D      G                C
  but they didn't have none, they didn't have none

  C
  I took that dollar bill downtown

  C 
  where I saw old Lucy Brown

                 D     G                 C
  just a hangin' around, just hangin' round

  C
  she said I'll show you a real good time

  C
  if you give me that dollar bill

             D     G        C
  you know I will, oh yes I will

  C
  we went to the park and laid in the grass

  C
  she was my first, I wasn't her last

              D        G                  C
  it was over fast, man, it happened real fast

  C
  then a couple years later she came to me

  C
  and said there's a little boy you ought to see

              D
  his name is William

  G                     C
  but I call him dollar Bill


  F                      C
  Dollar Bill, oh dollar Bill

  C
  you're the boy I found when I went downtown

  C               G
  looking for a thrill

  F                           C    F                        C
  it just cost a buck to make you, but I never will forsake you

  C                             G             C
  you're my only son, you're my little dollar Bill




  Now the three of us are doing fine

  
  living in a shack by the railroad line


  now Lucy's mine, yeah, I made her mine


  we got another baby on the way

  gonna have another little one any day

  it's a happy time, such a happy time

chorus

  F
  Lucy asks if it's a girl, what name I like, if any

  I said to call her what you want

  but just don't call her Penny!

  
  well it came so unexpectedly

  but I got me a loving family

  oh what a thrill

  and it started with a dollar bill!


  Dollar Bill, oh dollar Bill


  you're the boy I found when I went downtown

  
  looking for a thrill


  it just cost a buck to make you, but I never will forsake you


  you're my only son, you're my little dollar Bill
