I Wish I Had A Dollar Lyrics - No Stranger To Shame - Uncle Kracker

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)
