Greenback Dollar

Greenback Dollar - Kingston Trio

Written by：Ramsey/Profitt

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 d**n about a greenback a dollar

Spend it fast as I can

For a wailin' song and a good guitar

The only things that I understand poor boy

The only things that I understand

When I was a little baby

My mama said hey son

Travel where you will and grow to be a man

And sing what must be sung oh yeah

Sing what must be sung

And I don't give a d**n about a greenback a dollar

Spend it fast as I can

For a wailin' song and a good guitar

The only things that I understand poor boy

The only things that I understand

Now that I'm a grown man

I've traveled here and there

I've learned that a bottle of brandy and a song

The only ones who ever care poor boy

The only ones who ever care

And I don't give a d**n about a greenback a dollar

Spend it fast as I can

For a wailin' song and a good guitar

The only things that I understand poor boy

The only things that I understand

Who care

The only things that I understand

Oh oh

The only things that I understand

And I don't give a d**n about a greenback a dollar

Spend it fast as I can

For a wailin' song and a good guitar

The only things that I understand poor boy

The only things that I understand

Oh yeah

The only things that I understand poor boy

The only things that I understand
