Greenback Dollar

(album: Still Playin' Favorites - 2020)

Some people say I'm a no-count
Others say I'm no good
But I'm just a natural born travelling man
Doing what I think I should
Doing what I think I should

And I don't give a damn about a Greenback a-dollar
I spend it fast as I can
For a wailing song and a good guitar
The only things that I understand
The only things that I understand

And I don't give a damn about a Greenback a-dollar
I spend it fast as I can
For a wailing song and a good guitar
The only things that I understand
The only things that I understand

When I was a little baby
My momma tol me, "Son
Travel where you will and grow to be a man
And sing what must be sung
Sing what must be sung"

And I don't give a damn about a Greenback a-dollar
I spend it fast as I can
For a wailing song and a good guitar
The only things that I understand
The only things that I understand

Now that I'm a grown man
I've travelled here and there
I've learned that a bottle of brandy and a song
The only ones who ever cared
The only ones who ever cared

And I don't give a damn about a Greenback a-dollar
I spend it fast as I can
For a wailing song and a good guitar
The only things that I understand
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 travelling man
Doing what I think I should
Doing what I think I should

And I don't give a damn about a Greenback a-dollar
I spend it fast as I can
For a wailing song and a good guitar
The only things that I understand
The only things that I understand
The only things that I understand, that's right
The only things that I understand
