Greenback Dollar — текст песни (Kingston Trio)

Hoyt Axton/Ken Ramsey

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)
