Greenback Dollar (live version) — текст песни (Hoyt Axton)

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.

Chorus:
And I don`t give a damn about a greenback dollar
Spend it fast as I can for a wailin song, and a good guitar
The only thing that I understand, poor boy
The only thing that I understand.

When I was a little babe, 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.

Chorus:
And I don`t give a damn about a greenback dollar
Spend it fast as I can for a wailin song, and a good guitar
The only thing that I understand, poor boy
The only thing 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, poor boy
The only ones who ever cared.

Chorus:
And I don`t give a damn about a greenback dollar
Spend it fast as I can for a wailin song, and a good guitar
The only thing that I understand, poor boy
The only thing that I understand...
