Enjoy

I need a dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need
hey hey
Well I need a dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need
hey hey
And I said I need dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need
And if I share with you my story would you share your dollar with me

Bad times are comin and I reap what I don't sow
hey hey
Well let me tell you somthin all that glitters ain't gold
hey hey
It's been a long old trouble long old troublesome road
And I'm looking for somebody come and help me carry this load

Bridge:
I need a dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need
hey hey
Well I need a dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need
Well I don't know if I'm walking on solid ground
Cause everything around me is falling down
And all I want - is for someone - to help me

I had a job but the boss man let me go
He said
I'm sorry but I won't be needing your help no more
I said
Please mister boss man I need this job more than you know
But he gave me my last paycheck and he sent me on out the door

Bridge:
Well I need a dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need
hey hey
Said I need a dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need
hey hey
And I need a dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need
And if I share with you my story would you share your dollar with me
Well i don't know if i'm walking on solid ground
Cause everything around me is crumbling down
And all I want is for someone to help me

What in the world am I gonna to do tomorrow
is there someone whose dollar that I can borrow
Who can help me take away my sorrow
Maybe its inside the bottle
Maybe its inside the bottle
I had some good old buddy his names is whiskey and wine
hey hey
And for my good old buddy i spent my last dime
hey hey
My wine is good to me it helps me pass the time
and my good old buddy whiskey keeps me warmer than the sunshine
Hey Hey
Your mama may have, bless the child that's got his own
Hey Hey
if god has plans for me i hope it aint - written in stone
Hey Hey
because i've been working working myself down to the bone
and i swear on grandpas grave I'll be paid when i come home
Hey Hey

Bridge:
Well I need a dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need
hey hey
Said need a dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need
hey hey
Well I need a dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need hey hey
And if I share with you my story would you share your dollar with me
come on share your dollar with me
go ahead share your dollar with me
come on share your dollar give me your dollar
share your dollar with me
come on share your dollar with me

Macy Gray "Ghetto Love" Live

Enjoy


Lately I been high stepping Ultimamente tenho vindo a aumentar de alta
I gotta lover who is ghetto for real Eu tenho amante que é do gueto de verdade
Take me to movies and he's carrying steel Leve-me ao cinema e ele estava carregando em aço
Lord of the corner, king of the block Senhor do canto, o rei do bloco
Lacing his lady with chinchillas and rocks Lacing sua senhora com chinchilas e rochas
And he's all I want in my world E ele é tudo que eu quero no meu mundo
Ghetto Love Ghetto Amor
G-H-E-T-T-O GUETO
We get high together Ficamos juntos alta
G-H-E-T-T-O GUETO
Lately I been high stepping Ultimamente tenho vindo a aumentar de alta
Lord of my bod, king of my heart Senhor da minha bod, rei do meu coração
Gangster by day, Hennesy passion by dark Gangster-a-dia, a paixão Hennesy por dark
They try to beat us but they can't Eles tentam vencer-nos, mas não podem
We don't give a fuck Nós não damos uma foda
They try to beat us but they can't Eles tentam vencer-nos, mas não podem
We don't give a fuck Nós não damos uma foda
And he's all I want in my world E ele é tudo que eu quero no meu mundo
Ghetto Love Ghetto Amor
G-H-E-T-T-O GUETO
We get high together Ficamos juntos alta
G-H-E-T-T-O GUETO
I never worry when he's gone till November Eu nunca me preocupo quando ele foi até novembro
He taught me how to keep my hands on the trigger Ele me ensinou a manter minhas mãos no gatilho

Aretha Franklin +

Enjoy

Chain of fools
Chain, chain, chain, chain, chain, chain
Chain, chain, chain, chain of fools
Five long years I thought you were my man
But I found out I'm just a link in your chain
You got me where you want me
I ain't nothing but your fool
You treated me mean oh you treated me cruel
Chain, chain, chain, chain of fools

Every chain has got a weak link
I might be weak child, but I'll give you strength
You told me to leave you alone
My father said come on home
My doctor said take it easy
Whole bunch of lovin is much too strong
I'm added to your chain, chain, chain
Chain, chain, chain, chain,
Chain, chain of fools

One of these mornings the chain is gonna break
But up until then, yeah, I'm gonna take all I can take
Chain, chain, chain, chain, chain, chain
Chain, chain, chain, chain of fools
