Jamey Johnson - The Dollar lyrics

Your rating:

Daddy hugs his little man 
says son I?ve got to go 
and he pulls out of the drive and disappears 
as they walk back in the house 
the young boy asks his mama 
where does daddy go when he leaves here 

mama tells her little man 
your daddy?s got a job 
and when he goes to work they pay him for his time 
well the young boy gets to thinking 
and he heads up to his bedroom 
and comes running back with a quarter and four dimes 

(chorus:)
and says mama how much time will this buy me 
is it enough to take me fishing or throw a football in the street 
if I?m a little short then how much more does daddy need 
to spend some time with me 

the young boy tells his mama 
now I know daddy?s busy 
cause most times when he gets home it?s dark outside 
but tell him I?ve got me some pennies 
saved up from the tooth fairy 
and I keep ?em in my piggy bank and I believe there?s thirty-five 

(chorus:)
and mama how much time will that buy me 
is it enough to take me camping in a tent down by the creek 
if I?m a little short then how much more does daddy need 
to spend some time with me 

mama how much time will this buy me 
is it enough for just an afternoon a day or a whole week 
if I?m a little short then how much more does daddy need 
to spend some time with me 

mama takes her little man 
sets him on her lap 
and starts dialing up some numbers on the phone 
she says daddy come home early 
you don?t have to chase that dollar 
cause your little man has got one here at home
