Greenback Dollar

Some people say I'm no count

And others say I'm no good

But I'm just a natural born travelin' man

And I'm doin' what I think I should, poor boy

I'm doin' what I think I should

Hey, and I don't give a damn about a greenback dollar

I'll spend it fast as I can

For a waylon song and a good guitar

It's the only thing that I understand, poor boy

The only thing that I understand

When I was just a little baby

My mama, she said, "Son

Travel where you will and live to be a man

And sing what must be sung, poor boy

Sing what must be sung"

Hey, and I don't give a damn about a greenback dollar

I'll spend it fast as I can

For a waylon song and a good guitar

It's the only thing that I understand, poor boy

The only thing that I understand

And now that I am a grown man

I've traveled everywhere

I've learned that a bottle of brandy and a song

Are the only ones who care, poor boy

The only ones who care

Hey, and I don't give a damn about a greenback dollar

I'll spend it fast as I can

For a waylon song and a good guitar

It's the only thing that I understand, poor boy

The only thing that I understand

Hey, and I don't give a damn about a greenback dollar

I'll spend it fast as I can

For a waylon song and a good guitar

It's the only thing that I understand, poor boy

The only thing that I understand

Well, that's all that I understand, poor boy

The only thing that I understand
