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 And 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
