If I had a hundred dollar bill
In my pocket tonight
I'd take you in to Albuquerque
And we'd do that town up right
I've got sixteen dollars
And some gas in the car
What do you say we just drive on over
To the Silver Springs Bar
Maybe Carlos will run me a little
Tab for the night
We can have a few beers and laugh
And hope for better times
(Chorus)
We ain't been blessed by no shining stars above
We ain't beggars - we ain't choosers - hey, we may be losers
But even if we're losers, at least we're in love
It's us against this world and we're losing the fight
And it's a sin to be broke on a Saturday night
This whole world is falling down
Around us a little more every day
And it takes everything inside us
Just to hope and pray
But we keep the faith
it'll all be good again
We get by every day just
Doing the best we can
There'll come a day
But I can't say when
We'll look out across this desert
And see our ship coming in
We'll climb on board and sail away
Off into the sunset of a brand new day
(Chorus)
Now, we'd be looking at this world
In a whole new light
If I had a hundred dollar bill
In my pocket tonight
