《Five Dollar Bill》歌词

[00:00:01] I wrote my new song on a five dollar bill

[00:00:03] But I won't be able to sing it until

[00:00:05] I get hot on the trail for to pick up the track

[00:00:07] Of the dirty little thief and get my five bucks back

[00:00:12] I first got the five dollars from a Montana man

[00:00:14] When he come across the line with a pistol in his hand

[00:00:16] He said gimme all your money but I got to his first

[00:00:19] And I took his Colts too and the whole first verse

[00:00:23] You see you couldn't buy liquor in the States back then

[00:00:26] So we saddled up the ponies and we loaded up the gin

[00:00:28] Rode underneath the shadow of the grande Old Chief

[00:00:31] To git northern Rocky Mountain kinda tax relief

[00:00:34] You couldn't count on the cattle when the market got down

[00:00:36] And the veterinary bills to the doctor in town

[00:00:39] Both kids needed shoes and they had to get fed

[00:00:41] And a big old bank lien was over my head

[00:00:46] I wrote my new song on a five dollar bill

[00:00:48] But I won't be able to sing it until

[00:00:50] I get hot on the trail for to pick up the track

[00:00:53] Of the dirty little thief and get my five bucks back

[00:00:57] They wouldn't stop talking about Canadian rye

[00:01:00] Bouquet and the palate and it's crisp and it's dry

[00:01:02] In a Seagrams bottle tasted mighty top shelf

[00:01:05] I said "well thank you very much sir I cooked it myself"

[00:01:08] Of course that didn't wash with the boys down south

[00:01:10] Judging by the stream of color coming out of their mouth

[00:01:13] I can't figure why cuz from where I stood

[00:01:15] It got 'em just as damn drunk as any store bought would

[00:01:20] I wrote my new song on a five dollar bill

[00:01:22] But I won't be able to sing it until

[00:01:24] I get hot on the trail for to pick up the track

[00:01:27] Of the dirty little thief and get my five bucks back

[00:01:45] Well he come stormin' cross the border with six or eight guys

[00:01:48] Some damn fool saw fit to deputize

[00:01:50] But there weren't no sheriff nor a marshall in sight

[00:01:53] I guess the lawman was up drinkin' whiskey all night

[00:01:56] He said gimme all your money but I got to his first

[00:01:58] And I took his Colts too and the whole third verse

[00:02:01] He picked my back pocket worked the five bucks loose

[00:02:03] I had tucked in behind a can of Copenhagen

[00:02:08] I wrote my new song on a five dollar bill

[00:02:10] But I won't be able to sing it until

[00:02:12] I get hot on the trail for to pick up the track

[00:02:15] Of the dirty little thief and get my five bucks back

[00:02:18] The dirty little double dealing son-of-a-gun-of-a song stealin' chicken eatin' thief

[00:02:22] And get my five bucks back
