Dollar Bill Blues

	  		  
 
 
Am                 Dm  
If I had a dollar bill  
                        Am  
Yes I believe I surely will  
                        Em  
Go to town and drink my fill  
               Am  
Early in the morning  
 
 
Little darlin' she's a red haired thing  
Man she makes my legs to sing  
Gonna buy her a diamond ring  
Early in the mornin'  
 
 
Mother was a golden girl  
Slit her throat just to get her pearls  
Cast myself into a world  
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 mornin'  
 
 
I always been a gambling man  
Roll them bones with either hand  
Seven is the promised land  
Early in the mornin'  
 
 
Whiskey be my dyin' bed  
Tell me where to lay my head  
Not with me is all she said  
Early in the mornin'  
 
 
If I had a dollar bill  
Yes I believe I surely will  
Go to town and drink my fill  
Early in the mornin'
