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
