I Wish I Had a Dollar Lyrics

I wish I had a dollar for all the times somebody told me Everything's gonna be alright I wish I had a dollar for all the times somebody told me Everything's gonna be alright
I've been lost in Boston, Austin, Texas is always sweet I stumbled around that Texas town but I never left Sixth Street (Never left Sixth Street) You know it's always hard to keep my feet from tryin' to run away And it seems I spent a lifetime tryin' to make everything okay
I wanna go down to see her, she's my little queen I wanna go down to tell her, she means the world to me I wish I was down to watch her play that tambourine She always brought a smile to me, I'd do anything
I wish I had a dollar for all the times somebody told me Everything's gonna be alright
I wish sometimes that I could say she never told me so (Never told me so) And I'd walk a million miles on down the same old broken road Now you can always reap just what you sow I know that's true (True) And I pray some day that I wake and my poor feet won't fit these shoes
I wanna go down to see her, she's my little queen I wanna go down to tell her, she means the world to me I wish I was down to watch her play that tambourine She always brought a smile to me, I'd do anything
I wish I had a dollar for all the times somebody told me Everything's gonna be alright
If I listened closely I can hear it oh so clear (Clear) Like a south bound train, like fallin' rain, like a whisper in my ear (Whisper in my ear) Everything I'd like to hear you know I don't hear much no more But I know someday that you'll come my way And you'll walk right through that door
I wanna go down to see her, she's my little queen I wanna go down to tell her, she means the world to me I wish I was down to watch her play that tambourine She always brought a smile to me, I'd do anything
I wish I had a dollar for all the times somebody told me Everything's gonna be alright (Everything's gonna be alright)
I wish I had a dollar for all the times somebody told me Everything's gonna be alright (Everything's gonna be alright)
