Greenback Dollar |
Some people say I’m a no count, others say I’m no good |
But I’m just a natural born travelin' man |
Doin' what I think I should, oh yeah |
Doin' what I think I should |
And I don’t give a damn about a greenback dollar |
Spend it fast as I can for a wailin song and a good guitar |
The only thing that I understand, oh yeah |
The only thing that I understand, oh yeah |
When I was a little baby, my mama she said «Son |
Travel where you will and grow to be a man |
And sing what must be sung, poor boy |
Sing what must be sung.» |
And I don’t give a damn about a greenback dollar |
Spend it fast as I can for a wailin song and a good guitar |
The only thing that I understand, poor boy |
The only thing that I understand |
Now that I’m a grown man, I’ve travelled here and there |
And I’ve learned that a bottle of brandy and a song |
The only ones who care, oh Lord |
The only ones who care |
And I don’t give a damn about a greenback dollar |
Spend it fast as I can for a wailin song and a good guitar |
The only thing that I understand, oh yeah |
The only thing that I understand, oh yeah |
Some people say I’m a no count, others say I’m no good |
But I’m just a natural born travelin' man |
Doin' what I think I should, oh yeah |
Doin' what I think I should |
And I don’t give a damn about a greenback dollar |
Spend it fast as I can for a wailin song and a good guitar |
The only thing that I understand, oh yeah |
The only thing that I understand |
That’s all that I understand, poor boy |
That’s all that I understand |
