Last Two Dollars Lyrics by Sweet Pea Atkinson

Get What You Deserve

2017

[Intro]
What a shame, what a shame
[Verse 1]
Lady at the casino, she lost all her money
She said: Don't feel sorry for me
No, don't feel sorry, honey
But if you wanna do a lady a favor
Here's what I want you to do
Just loan me two dollars, uh-huh
Until the next time I see you
[Chorus]
These last two dollars (last two dollars)
I'm not gonna lose (not gonna lose)
These last two dollars (last two dollars)
I'm not gonna lose (not gonna lose)
One's going for my bus fare
Other one for the jukebox
To hear me some that old blues (last two dollars)
I gotta hear me some blues
[Verse 2]
She said: I wouldn't be over here
If my man had been treating me right
I came here to try to catch him here
'Cause he's been sneakin' around every night
But I got caught up over here
Caught up in this scene
I put all of my money, hey...
In that doggone gambling machine
[Chorus]
These last two dollars (last two dollars)
I'm not gonna lose (not gonna lose)
These last two dollars (last two dollars)
I'm not gonna lose (not gonna lose)
One's going for my bus fare
Other one for the jukebox
To hear me some that old blues (last two dollars)
Got to hear me some
[Verse 1]
Lady at the casino, she lost all her money, yeah
She said: Don't feel sorry, don't feel sorry, honey
If you wanna do a lady a favor
Here's what I want you to do
Just loan me two dollars, uh-huh
Until the next time I see you
[Chorus]
But these last two dollars (last two dollars)
I'm not gonna lose (not gonna lose)
These last two dollars (last two dollars)
I'm not gonna lose (not gonna lose)
One's going for my bus fare (last two dollars)
Other one for the jukebox
To hear me some doggone blues (last two dollars)
Let me hear ya one more time, say...
[Outro]
These last two dollars (last two dollars)
I'm not gonna lose (not gonna lose)
These last two dollars (last two dollars)
I'm not gonna lose (not gonna lose)
I've learned my lesson (last two dollars)
Oh, you know I've paid ya
To hear me some doggone blues (last two dollars)
Got to hear me some
These last two dollars (last two dollars)
I'm not gonna lose (not gonna lose)
These last two dollars (last two dollars)
Sure ain't gonna lose (not gonna lose)
One's going for my bus fare (last two dollars)
Other one for the jukebox
To hear me some that old blues (last two dollars)
Alright now
These last two dollars I'm not gonna lose
These last two dollars sure ain't gonna lose
