If anyone on this site wants to try to do the music to these lyrics, have at it. I'll be interested in what everyone or anyone comes up with. I originally wrote this as a blues song, but I didn't like my take on the music as blues is not really my genre. This song could also be a country song if you leave off the last two lines of each verse and add the chorus. So you can do it in the V V C V B V style or the V V B V style or modify it anyway you need the words to work with your music. Good luck if you try.

Bottom Dollar Blues by Donna Evans

Verse 1
She’s a candy red hot
Fire whiskey, tequila shots
She’s waitin’ for me at the bar
Spends my money like a wild fire
Think I’m scorin’ but I lose
Got the bottom dollar blues

Verse 2
Hopin’ she’s my Lucky Star
She plays me like a lotto jar
We cruise and smooze around
My ticker tape’s runnin’ down
Then some final rounds of pool
Goes my bottom dollar blues

Bridge
Sunday church I’m confessin’
Can’t seem to learn my lesson
Party girls and booze
Give me the bottom dollar blues

Verse 3
She always reeves my engine
Sparing an intervention
I’m addicted to the night life
We live the weekends right
For her I’ll be the fool
With the bottom dollar blues


Optional Chorus
I got the bottom dollar blues
Think I’m scorin, but I lose
For her, I’ll be the fool
With the bottom dollar blues
