Versuri Jamey Johnson The Dollar

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 
Comes running back with a quarter and four dimes 
 
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 
 
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
