Silver Dollar

Petula Clark

A man without a woman is like a ship without a sail,
A boat without a rudder or a fish without a tail,
A man without a woman is like a wreck upon the sand,
There's only one thing worse in the universe
That's a woman without a man.
A woman without a man.

You can throw a silver dollar down upon the ground,
And it will roll, because it's round.
A woman never knows what a good man she's got,
Until she turns him down,

So listen, my honey, listen to me
I want you to understand
That as a silver dollar goes from hand to hand
A woman goes from man to man,
A woman goes from man to man.
