Well I tried to find something

Something to hold on to

I thought it was you cause I'm sick and tired

Of trying to make something

Something out of nothing

I guess since you were bluffing

Now I think I'm losing my mind

The pain in my heart

Was it worth the price?

The pain in my heart

Was it worth the time I wasted on you?

You're giving me the Top Dollar Blues



And i gave you it all, all

All that I could give you

You've taken what I've given

Ynd thrown it all away

Like it's nothing

Never meant nothing

Now i'm left with nothing

What an awful price I've paid

The pain in my heart,

Was it worth the price?

The pain in my heart,

Was it worth the time I wasted on you?

You're giving me the top dollar blues.



I've bet all my money and that's how it goes

You ran a good race

But you lost just by a nose

It's true.

Baby, you're giving me the Top Dollar Blues.

The top dollar blues,

I gave you it all, all

All that I could give you

And the Top Dollar Blues

Top Dollar Blues
