Townes Van Zandt - Dollar Bill BluesLyrics

If I had a dollar bill Yes, I believe I surely will Go to town and drink my fill Early in the morning Little darling, she's a red haired thing Man, she makes my legs to sing Gonna buy her a diamond ring Early in the morning Mother was a golden girl I slit her throat just to get her pearls Cast myself into a whirl Before a bunch of swine It's a long way down the Harlan road Busted back and a heavy load Won't get through to save my soul Early in the morning I've always been a gambling man I've rolled them bones with either hand Seven is the promised land Early in the morning Whiskey'd be my dying bed Tell me where to lay my head Not with me is all she said Early in the morning If I had a dollar bill Yes, I believe I surely will Go to town and drink my fill Early in the morning
