Devin The Dude - Almighty Dollar lyrics
[Verse One:] Seventeen dollars all to my name I had to spend two went to got me a drank At a sto' fo' mo' for a box of squares I seen a fine b**h I had to stop and stare It was hot and she was walkin' in the scorching sun I said, "Get in pretty girl I don't want you to burn." She said she lives across town and needed a ride I would have took her but this gas is too highhhhh I kept flippin' I kept dippin' I can't be wasting my time Went to the tre for a dime Now, I got a dollar left Might as well give it to someone else, I can help Tried to hand it to a brother He said, "Man, you need more than this mothaf**a" [Chorus:] The almighty dollar It ain't what it used to be Hobos used to asked you for a dollar Now the motherf**ers ask you for three The almighty dollar Well that's what they used to say One dollar used to be a whole lot, but it hardly worth sh** today [Devin talking] Well sh**, give me my dollar back n***a When I'm in the tre I might as well go buy T.S.U. See what these fine girls do around here Go to Franklin's and smell me some chicken or something Damn, what are all these helicopters doin' around this mothaf**a? Continue my journey with the AC off Smoke rushin' out the window every time I cough I swang to the right and let the police pa** The n***a tryin' to get away, them laws on his a** But I'm glad it ain't me Aw naw, not now I'm tryin' to rise, tryin' to climb Don't want to fall back down So I put the sweet out and wait until I arrive Treat it like a Now 'N' Later because I'm already highhhhhh I had no need for fronting Ain't even try to be funny n***a got to have money Some of us love it Some of us hate it Some of us need it Almighty dollar [Chorus] [Outro:] [Clerk] Hello. How you do? [Devin] Yeah what's up man? Let me get ah, two cigarillos two gallons of gas, and these two Budweisers right here [Clerk] Oh, two Budweisers. Fifteen dollar [Devin] Say what? [Clerk] Fifteen dollar. [Devin] Man you bullsh**tin' man [Clerk] No, fifteen dollar you got two... [Devin] Naw, naw naw. Get me get, one gallon of gas one cigarillo and just one Budweiser then f** it
