A Dollar And A Dream |
I’ve got a dollar, that i want to save |
Safe in my pocket, i’ll try to hold fast |
Hey! |
it might be my last |
I know what i’ve got, folded safe in its spot |
I earned a dollar, it’s not here to share |
I’ve got a dollar and that’s all i’ve got |
A million more is just a single grain |
A grain of sand, or just one drop of rain |
A small amount might make the difference these days |
A dollar and a dream is all i can raise |
I had a dream, i had all the answers |
To all the questions, i’ve ever been asked |
And in my dream, i had all the answers |
To all the questions, i’ve ever asked myself |
Man what a dream, it sure felt great |
Took to the streets, 'cause i couldn’t wait |
To freely give wisdom and share what i knew |
I had a dream and that’s all i had |
A million here, lay down in pain every night |
A million there, to stay alive must fight |
I’m sure my numbers underestimate |
A dollar and a dream, i swear it’s not too late |
I had a dollar, i wanted to save |
Keep in my pocket, i held fast |
A dollar bill, that i would take to my grave |
Deep in my pocket like it was my last |
Look for the dollar, now it’s not there |
Even the pants are a different pair |
I earned the dollar, i had to share |
I had a dollar and that’s all i had |
A million more, is just a star in the sky |
Tip of the iceberg, but we’ve all got to try |
Our works cut out, and there’s work to be done |
A dollar and a dream, is step number, step number one |
