about

cover of a townes van zandt song

lyrics

if i had a dollar bill,
yes, i believe i surely will
go to town and drink my fill
early in the mornin'.

little darlin', i'm a red-haired thing.
man, i'll make your legs to sing.
gonna buy me a diamond ring
early in the mornin'.

my mother was a golden girl.
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 mornin'.

oh, whiskey be my dyin' bed.
tell me where to lay my head.
'not with me,' is all he said
early in the mornin'.

oh, if i had a dollar bill,
yes, i believe i surely will
go to town and drink my fill
early in the mornin'.
