Greenback Dollar Songtext
von The Astronauts

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

And I don′t give a damn about a greenback dollar
Spend it fast as I can
For a Waylon song and a good guitar
The only things that I understand
Oh boy, the only things that I understand

When I was a little baby
My mama said, "Hey son
Travel where you will and grow to be a man
And sing what must be sung"
Oh yeah, sing what must be sung


And I don't give a damn about a greenback dollar
Spend it fast as I can
For a Waylon song and a good guitar
The only things that I understand
Oh boy, the only things that I understand

Now that I′m a grown man
I've traveled here and there
I found that a bottle of brandy and a song
The only ones who′ll ever care
Oh yeah, the only ones who'll ever care

And I don′t give a damn about a greenback dollar
Spend it fast as I can
For a Waylon song and a good guitar
The only things that I understand
Oh boy, the only things that I understand

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


And I don't give a damn about a greenback dollar
Spend it fast as I can
For a Waylon song and a good guitar
The only things that I understand
Oh boy, the only things that I understand

The only things that I understand
Oh boy, the only things that I understand
