A Dollar Down - The Limeliters

Throughout history mankind has been plagued with triangles

A there’s the eternal triangle

The isosceles triangle

And the schrons flippus (That’s the one! yeah)

However this song is about a friend of mine

Who bought an automobile

Dollar down and a dollar a week

And everytime he turned the wheel

Dollar down and a dollar a week

He got a credit card for that new machine

Dollar down and a dollar a week

And he kept it full of gasoline

Dollar down and a dollar a week

Just a dollar down and a dollar a week

You can get all the things you seek

For a dollar down and a dollar a week

Well he went speeding on down the road

And kissing his gal upon her cheek

They took him to jail but he put up bail

Dollar down and a dollar a week

The judge did fine him fifty bucks

And asked if he would like to speak

He said, 'Judge if I may, I’d like to pay'

Dollar down and a dollar a week

Just a dollar down and a dollar a week

You can get all the things you seek

For a dollar down and a dollar a week

When he got out, he married that gal

Dollar down and a dollar a week

He bought a wedding ring that was pretty cheap

Dollar down and a dollar a week

Refridgerator and a washing machine

Dollar down and a dollar a week

And the food stayed cold and the clothes stayed clean

Dollar down and a dollar a week

Just a dollar down and a dollar a week

You can get all the things you seek

For a dollar down and a dollar a week

They got themselves a little home

Dollar down and a dollar a week

With a second mortgage and a pretty good loan

Dollar down and a dollar a week

He said to his wife, 'It's a pretty good life'

Dollar down and a dollar a week

And she said, 'Honey we don’t need much money'

Dollar down and a dollar a week

Just a dollar down and a dollar a week

You can get all the things you seek

For a dollar down and a dollar a week

But six little kids did soon arrive

Dollar down and a dollar a week

He had so many worries that he could not sleep

Dollar down and a dollar a week

As their debts began to mount

They added them up apon a sheet

They said with tears, 'We'll take a thousand years at a'

Dollar down and a dollar a week

Just a dollar down and a dollar a week

You can get all the things you seek

For a dollar down

And a dollar a week
