Lyrics

One Silver Dollar

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

One silver dollar, bright silver dollar,

Changing hands, changing hands.

Endlessly rollin', wasted or stolen,

Changing hands, changing hands.

Spent for a beer he's drinking,

Won by a gambler's lust,

Pierced by an outlaw's bullet

And rusted in the blood red dust.

One silver dollar, worn silver dollar,

Changing hands, changing hands,

Love is a shining dollar,

Bright as a church bell's chime

Gambled and spent and wasted,

And lost in a dart of time.

One silver dollar, worn silver dollar,

Changing hearts, changing lives,

Changing hands.
