A DOLLAR DOWN AND A DOLLAR A WEEK (2) (Woody Guthrie, Cisco Houston) Ade Olay E-E Ade Olay E-E E-E-E-E-E A friend of mine bought an automobile At a dollar down and a dollar a week. Every time he turned the wheel, It was a dollar down and a dollar a week. He went riding down the road, Pinched this girl upon her cheek. Speed cop took him to the judge, He got a dollar down and a dollar a week. Sixty days he laid in jail, At a dollar down and a dollar a week, Another man was a lovin' his gal, At a dollar down and a dollar a week. When he got out he shot the man, And laid him in the graveyard six feet deep. And when he bought the graveyard spot, It was a dollar down and a dollar a week. Ade olay E-E Ade olay E-E Ade olay E-E E-E-E-E-E (repeat) Attributed to Woody Guthrie and Cisco Houston. Woody's recording of "Dollar Down" can be found on a Smithsonian/Folkways CD called "Struggle." @money @humor filename[ DOLLRDW2 SB Feb07 ![]() 8note Sheet> |
