※ 引述《loveyourself (I Still Believe)》之銘言： : 07.Jamey Johnson - The Dollar Jamey Johnson的小自傳前面有稍稍提到（完整的還是去他的官網看了~~) The Dollar的歌詞寫得相當平易近人，沒什麼特別難的詞彙。也因為聽這首歌 比較沒有太多的隔閡。 描敘的內容很多家庭都可能經歷過，一個為家庭努力工作的父親、一個持家的 母親和一個天真無邪的小孩。小朋友總是會提出無數的問題，得到答案後通常 也會自己古錐的解讀方法；就像這首歌詞所寫的，『媽媽告訴她的小寶貝，爸 爸因為花時間、精力工作才會拿到錢。』，小孩便想著如果他能夠存點錢，那 麼爸爸是不是就能夠花點時間陪陪他呢？ 看似可愛的歌詞卻是有那麼點無奈、感傷。最後一段寫著： mama takes her little man sets him on her lap and starts dialing up some numbers on the phone she says daddy come home early you don’t have to chase that dollar cause your little man has got one here at home 聽到時有點鼻酸～這段寫得很樸實動人。 Music Video可以至：http://www.cmt.com/artists/az/johnson_jamey/videos.jhtml 觀賞。 The Dollar Daddy hugs his little man says son I’ve got to go and he pulls out of the drive and disappears as they walk back in the house the young boy asks his mama where does daddy go when he leaves here mama tells her little man your daddy’s got a job and when he goes to work they pay him for his time well the young boy gets to thinking and he heads up to his bedroom and comes running back with a quarter and four dimes (chorus:) and says mama how much time will this buy me is it enough to take me fishing or throw a football in the street if I’m a little short then how much more does daddy need to spend some time with me the young boy tells his mama now I know daddy’s busy cause most times when he gets home it’s dark outside but tell him I’ve got me some pennies saved up from the tooth fairy and I keep ‘em in my piggy bank and I believe there’s thirty-five (chorus:) and mama how much time will that buy me is it enough to take me camping in a tent down by the creek if I’m a little short then how much more does daddy need to spend some time with me mama how much time will this buy me is it enough for just an afternoon a day or a whole week if I’m a little short then how much more does daddy need to spend some time with me mama takes her little man sets him on her lap and starts dialing up some numbers on the phone she says daddy come home early you don’t have to chase that dollar cause your little man has got one here at home --
