lyrics

"Silver Dollar Blues"

I got a shiny silver dollar
Took it down to the general store
I got a shiny silver dollar
Took it down to the general store
Where I bought me a bottle of whiskey
And a couple rounds for my. 44

Then I found me someplace private
And I drank that bottle down
Yes, I found me someplace private
And I drank that bottle down
If anyone comes lookin' for me
You tell em you ain't seen me around

Well I was ridin' on the road
And ran into a man
Yes I was ridin' on the road
And I ran into this man
Put my pistol to his head
Asked him nice to raise his hands

But he went reachin' for his gun, Lord
So I had to fire mine
Yeah he went reachin' for his gun, Lord
So I had to fire mine
If he'd just done as I told him
That poor fool would be alive

So I'm headed down to Mexico
And I ain't never comin' back
I'm headed south to Mexico
And I ain't never comin' back
Cause all he had was one silver dollar
And I ain't gonna hang for that
