Greenback Dollar
Artist: Brian Hyland
Title: Greenback Dollar
-------------------
Some people say I'm a no 'count. Others say I'm no good.
But I'm just a nat'ral-born travelin' man, doin' what
I think I should, O, yeah. Doin' what I think I should.
Chorus:
And I don't give a damn about a greenback dollar,
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, my momma said, "Hey, son.
Travel where you will and grow to be a man
And sing what must be sung, poor boy. Sing what must be sung."
(Chorus)
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.
(Chorus, repeat first verse and repeat chorus)
