Green Back Dollar Lyrics

Green Back Dollar - Kingston Trio

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 yah

Doin' what I think I should

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

I spend it as 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

Hey mama must said hey son travel

Where you will and grow to be a man

And sing what must be sung poor boy

You better sing what must be sung

I don't give a d*mn about a greenback

Dollar

I spend it as 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

Only ones who ever care

And I don't give a d*mn about a greenback

Dollar

I spend it as 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

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 yah

Doin' what I think I should

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

I spend it as 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

The only things that I understand poor boy

 

The only things that I understand
