Greenback Dollar |
| Some people say I’m a no-count |
| Others say I’m no good |
| But I’m just a natural born travelling man |
| Doing what I think I should, oh yeah |
| Doing what I think I should |
| And I don’t give a |
| About a greenback dollar |
| Spend it fast as I can |
| For a whaling song and a good guitar |
| The only things that I understand |
| Yes, the only things that I understand |
| When I was a little baby |
| My momma said, «Hey son |
| You gotta travel where you will |
| And grow up to be a man |
| And sing what gotta be sung |
| Sing what gotta be sung» |
| And I don’t give a |
| About a greenback dollar |
| Spend it fast as I can |
| For a whaling song and a good guitar |
| The only things that I understand |
| Yes, the only things that I understand |
| Now that I’m a grown man |
| I’ve travelled here and there |
| But I’ve learned that a bottle of brandy and a song |
| Are the only ones who ever cared |
| The only ones who really cared |
| And I don’t give a |
| About a greenback dollar |
| Spend it fast as I can |
| For a whaling song and a good guitar |
| The only things that I understand |
| Yes, the only things that I understand |
| Some people say I’m a no-count, yeah |
| Others say I’m no good |
| But I’m just a natural born travelling man |
| I’m doing what I think I should, oh yeah |
| I’m doing what I think I should |
| And I don’t give a |
| About a greenback dollar |
| Spend it fast as I can |
| For a whaling song and a good guitar |
| The only things that I understand |
| Yes, the only things that I understand |
| I said, the only things that I understand |
| Yes, the only things that I understand |
| I said, the only things that I understand |
