"Dollar Days" is a song by English musician David Bowie. It is the sixth track on Bowie's twenty-fifth and final studio album, Blackstar, released on 8 January 2016. The track was written by Bowie and produced by Bowie and Tony Visconti. "Dollar Days" charted in multiple countries, including Bowie's home country of the UK, where it peaked at number 138.

"Dollar Days" was done without having a demo created for it prior. According to Donny McCaslin, who provided saxophone parts for Blackstar, "One day, David just picked up a guitar ... he had this little idea, and we just learned it right there in the studio."

"Dollar Days" received positive reception from critics. Mike Powell of Pitchfork separately reviewed the song and labeled it their "Best New Track", comparing it to Bowie's older hits "Five Years" and "Ashes to Ashes". Jody Rosen of Billboard labeled the song as "lovely" with a lyrical combination of "delicacy and clatter".
