[Verse 1]
Am E7 Am E7
I'm standin' on the corner with a dollar in my hand,
Am E7 Am E7 C7
I'm lookin' for a woman who's lookin' for a man,
F C
Tell me how long do I have to wait,
G F C E7
Can I get you now, or must I hesitate?

Am E7 Am E7
The eagle on the dollar says, "In God we trust,"

Woman says she wants a man, but wants to see a dollar first,

Ain't never been to heaven, but I've been told,

A nickel is a nickel, and a dime is a dime,

I got a house full of children, not one of them mine,

G F C E7
Can I get you now, or must I hesitate?
