Greenback Dollar

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 yeah

Doin' what I think I should

And I don't give a damn about a greenback, a dollar

Spend it 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 mama 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

And I don't give a damn about a greenback, a dollar

Spend it 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

The only ones who ever care

And I don't give a damn about a greenback, a dollar

Spend it 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 yeah

Doin' what I think I should

And I don't give a damn about a greenback, a dollar

Spend it 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
