Bluegrass Dollars (Performed with Wally Hughes)

BLUEGRASS DOLLAR
s lawson/s majors

well it's hard to make any sense outta bluegrass dollars
'cause you're living a tin roof shack way back in the hollar
started loading up my car for a gig but i said why bother
cause it's hard to make any sense outta bluegrass dollars

i shoulda listened to my dear old dad and my sweet old mother
gotta a good paying straight christian job just like my brother
wear a nice clean pair of slacks and a starched white collar
but i'm sitting here trying to make sense outta bluegrass dollars

it's a left handed crooked life for a fellow to foller
it's a big bitter banjo pill that i'm tryin to swaller
Playing bars from 9 to 5 in a pizza parlor
lord it's hard to make any sense outta bluegrass dollars

if i had any pride left at all i'd walk a little taller
should've known footsteps of bill monroe weren't nothing to foller
now my gal wants a brand new car and i'm trying to stall her
cause it's hard to make any sense outta bluegrass dollars
lord it's hard to make any sense outta bluegrass dollars
