Dollars Lyrics by Kayley Green
I’ve played in bars ever since I was 15
To make some extra cash for Friday night
And underneath them lights, the bug right up and bit me
And I found myself a victim to the grind
Towns like this, they don’t make it easy
To feel like you can slow down and take a breath
And I’ve been staying up the last few nights thinking
About when I hang it up, what I’ll have left
So, when I get too far off track
I’m gonna stop and book a flight back home
I’ll never get them back
So, I’m just gonna let the good times roll
And when I think about my mama
I’m gonna park the car and call her
Cause I hope I spend my life
Making more memories than dollars
I wanna watch my niece blow out her candles
And ask my grandparents how they met
Never take on more than I can handle
And know that what that is, is happiness
So, when I get too far off track
I’m gonna stop and book a flight back home
I’ll never get them back
So, I’m just gonna let the good times roll
And when I think about my mama
I’m gonna park the car and call her
Cause I hope I spend my life
Making more memories than dollars
If my daddy leaves me money, the bank can keep it
I don’t wanna say goodbye to him anyway
And when that day comes, all that I’ll be needing
Is to sit with him on the porch for one more day
And when I get too far off track
I’m gonna stop and book a flight back home
I’ll never get them back
So, I’m just gonna let the good times roll
And when I think about my mama
I’m gonna park the car and call her
Cause I hope I spend my life
Making more memories than dollars
