For a few dollars more
Rich girl she buys her dreams
It’s a rich world behind the scenes
Green eyes they tell it all
The more she takes the harder they fall.
Now she ain’t easy and she ain’t tough
She’s had it good but then she’s had it rough.
But I guess it don’t come to much
With all she’s got she ain’t got enough.
So she’ll cry just a little for a few dollars more
She’ll lie just a little like she’s done it before
She’ll take it, she’ll fake it for a few dollars more
She’ll show you her heart, then she’ll show you the door
You know she’ll die just a little for a few dollars more
Even fly just a little like she’s done it before.
She’ll take it, she’ll fake it for a few dollars more
She’ll show you her heart, then she’ll show you the door.
Strange things can happen to you,
When you’ve got so much and you’ve got nothing to do
Oh, what do you know?
How do you get there when there’s nowhere to go?
And so you wonder just what she’ll do
She’s never known love but then she’s never known you
And it’s too bad those sad green eyes
Are so full of questions and so full of lies
And she’ll cry just a little for a few dollars more
She’ll lie just a little like she’s done it before
She’ll take it, she’ll fake it for a few dollars more
She’ll show you her heart, then she’ll show you the door
You know she’ll die just a little for a few dollars more
Even fly just a little like she’s done it before.
She’ll take it, she’ll fake it for a few dollars more
She’ll show you her heart, then she’ll show you the door.
You know she’ll cry...
