Addicted to a Dollar Songtext
von Doug Stone

Eighty hours a week, that′s what I call work
And this black under my blue collar is his best pay dirt
They work me hard from dawn to dusk
Doin' double time puttin′ out sweat for a filthy buck

F.I.C.A. and the state
They make my paycheck look like a big mistake
Taxman takes his before I see a cent
And what they don't get, I've already spent


I′m addicted to a dollar, that ain′t worth a dime
I pick up my paycheck and pass it on down the line
The more money that I'm making, the less I can call mine
Well, I′m addicted to a dollar, that ain't worth a dime

Got me more payments than I′ve got checks
Ten more to go on this car, it's a wreck
Landlord′s at my door, it's a life of hard knocks
When all I really want is my piece of the rock

I'm addicted to a dollar, that ain′t worth a dime
I pick up my paycheck and pass it on down the line
The more money that I′m making, the less I can call mine
Well, I'm addicted to a dollar, that ain′t worth a dime


I'm addicted to a dollar, that ain′t worth a dime
I pick up my paycheck and pass it on down the line
The more money that I'm making, the less I can call mine
Well, I′m addicted to a dollar, that ain't worth a dime
