For a Dollar - Citizen Cope

Moved to the city to settle a vendetta

Ran from a stellar to the hands of Isabella

Was a good earner, got a little butter

Moved to Calcutta, got rich by the summer

Learned that an eye for an eye made the whole world blind

City by city, they built sin city

Mr. Benjamin must have got or needs a schilling

'Cuz he’d rather not walk in the gobs from the prison

And there ain’t nowhere this lonely road

This lonely road won’t go

What pleases your heart

It’s not always what eases your spirit or your soul

For a dollar, will you heal she?

For a dollar, will you feed he?

For a dollar, would you mind explaining to me why today got bought by tomorrow?

For a dollar, will you hold me?

For a dollar, will you love me?

For a dollar, would you mind explaining to me why today got bought by tomorrow?
