BOTTOM DOLLAR
(Billy Joe Shaver / Danny Finley)


Billy Joe Shaver - 1973





Bottom dollar, it looks like the end, oh how I hate to see you go
Bottom dollar, we've been the best of friends
We musta counted on each other a hundred times or more
Oh and my, oh my, how those eagles fly
Goodbye bottom dollar, goodbye

Bottom dollar, all your friends have gone
They've been blown on dance hall girls and wine
Bottom dollar, if the truth was known
You've been the bestest friend I’ll ever find
Oh and my, oh my, how those eagles fly
Goodbye bottom dollar, goodbye

Oh and my, oh my, how those eagles fly
Goodbye bottom dollar, goodbye
Goodbye bottom dollar goodbye
Old friend of mine
