Dollar Bill Blues — текст песни (Townes Van Zandt)

By townes van zandt



If I had a dollar bill

Yes, I believe I surely will

Go to town and drink my fill

Early in the morning





Little darling, shes a redhaired thing

Man, she makes my legs to sing

Gonna buy her a diamond ring

Early in the morning





Mother was a golden girl

I slit her throat just to get her pearls

Cast myself into a whirl

Before a bunch of swine





Its a long way down the harlan road

Busted back and a heavy load

Wont get through to save my soul

Early in the morning





Ive always been a gambling man

Ive roled them bones with either hand

Seven is the promised land

Early in the morning





Whiskeyd be my dying bed

Tell me where to lay my head

Not with me is all she said

Early in the morning





If I had a dollar bill

Yes, I believe I surely will

Go to town and drink my fill

Early in the morning
