Greenback Dollar Bill |
As I was walking down the street last night |
A pretty little girl came into sight |
I bowed and smiled and asked her her name |
She said, «Lookie here daddy, I don’t play that game» |
So I reached in my pocket, and much to her surprise |
There was Lincoln staring her dead in the eyes |
Oh, greenback, greenback dollar bill, yes |
Just a little piece of paper, coated with chlorophyll |
She looked at me with that familiar desire |
And her eyes lit up like they were on fire |
She said, «My name’s Flo, and you’re on the right track |
But lookie here, daddy, I got the furs on my back |
So if you want to have fun in this man’s land |
Let Lincoln and Jackson start shaking hands.» |
Oh, greenback, greenback paper bill |
Yes, just a little piece of paper, coated with chlorophyll |
I didn’t know what I was getting into |
But out popped Lincoln and Jackson, too |
I didn’t mind seein' them fade out of sight |
Cause I just knew I’d have me some fun last night |
So whenever you in town and looking for a thrill |
If Lincoln can’t get it, Jackson sure will |
Greenback, greenback dollar bill, yes |
Just a little piece of paper, coated with chlorophyll |
We went to a nightspot where the lights were low |
We dined and danced, and I was ready to go |
All of a sudden that chick arose |
She said, «Give me some money daddy, I got to powder my nose» |
So I gave her Lincoln with a smiling face |
And she went down to that there powder place |
With my, greenback dollar bill |
Yes, just a little piece of paper, coated with chlorophyll |
The music stopped and the lights came on |
And I looked around and saw I was all alone |
I didn’t know how long that chick had been gone |
But a nose powder sure didn’t take that long |
I left that place with tears in my eyes |
As I waved Lincoln and Jackson a last goodbye |
Greenback, greenback dollar bill, yes |
Just a little piece of paper, coated with chlorophyll |
