A Dollar And A Dream - The Mighty Mighty Bosstones

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
