Greenback Dollar (Revolutionary Version)
(original version by Kingston Trio)
Some people say I'm a no 'count. Others say I'm no good.
But I'm just a nat'ral-born patriot man, doin' what I think I should,
O, yeah. Doin' what I think I should.
And I don't give a damn about a greenback dollar, it ain’t worth a damn.
For havin’ liberty and a takin’ responsibility, are 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."
And I don't give a damn about a greenback dollar, it ain’t worth a damn.
For havin’ liberty and a takin’ responsibility, are the only things that I understand, poor boy, the only things that I understand.
Now that I'm a grown man, I've traveled here and there. I've learned
when ya fight for what is right.
You’ll never be alone I swear, poor boy, you’ll never be alone I swear.
And I don't give a damn about a greenback dollar, it ain’t worth a damn.
For havin’ liberty and a takin’ responsibility, are the only things that I understand, poor 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 nat'ral-born patriot man, doin' what I think I should,
O, yeah. Doin' what I think I should.
And I don't give a damn about a greenback dollar, it ain’t worth a damn.
For havin’ liberty and a takin’ responsibility, are the only things that I understand, poor boy, the only things that I understand
