One More Dollar Songtext
von Bluegrass Stuff

A long time ago I left my home for a job
In the fruit trees
But I miss those hills with the windy pines
Their song seemed to suit me
So I sent my wages to my home said soon
We′d be together
For the next good crop will pay my way
And I'll come home forever

One more dime to show for my day
One more dollar and I′m on my way
When I reach those hills boys I'll never roam
One more dollar and I'm going home


No work said the boss at the bunkhouse door
Was freezed on the fringes
So when the dice came out at the bar downtown
I rolled and I took my chances

One more dime to show for my day
One more dollar and I′m on my way
When I reach those hills boys I′ll never roam
One more dollar and I'm going home

A long time ago I left my home just a boy
Passing twenty
Could you spare a coin and a Christian prayer
My luck has turned against me

One more dime to show for my day
One more dollar and I′m on my way
When I reach those hills boys I'll never roam
One more dollar and I′m going home
