Bottom Dollar
[Verse 1]
The candle is flickerin'
The lamp oil is gone
The northern lights come streamin' down
And I know it won't be long

[Verse 2]
There's 15 wolves out in the back
And eight shots for my gun
There's ten days wood left in the bin
And I know it won't be long

[Chorus]
And the train don't roll
By my window anymore
The snow just blows
Through the cracks in the floor
And I'd give my bottom dollar
To see her face in my back door
I'd give my bottom dollar
Just to hold you in my arms
[Verse 3]
The frost came early and so did the snow
I guess they couldn't get in
I lit a fire to send a signal
It was taken by the wind

[Verse 4]
There's a letter in the cupboard above the stove
Please take it to her
I wrote it on the label of my bottle of whiskey
I could still feel it burn

[Chorus]
And the train don't roll
By my window anymore
The snow just blows
Through the cracks in the floor
And I'd give my bottom dollar
To see her face in my back door
I'd give my bottom dollar
Just to hold you in my arms

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
And the train don't roll
By my window anymore
The snow just blows
Through the cracks in the floor
And I'd give my bottom dollar
To see her face in my back door
I'd give my bottom dollar
Just to hold you in my arms
