Standard (EADGBE)
I've got a lot of blues on my mind
And at least a million miles behind me
And all that I've got between me
And Pauper's hill
Is a wrinkled crinkled wadded dollar bill
Lake Michigan wind sure is cold
And I need me a jacket for my shoulders
I could buy one down at the surplus store
Cheap cotton twill
With my wrinkled crinkled wadded dollar bill
Chorus
But I'm not bound and I never will.....be
to a wrinkled crinkled wadded dollar bill
It sure smells good at the bakery
And I stand and let the smell flood over me
They sell them day old cakes mighty cheaply
I could eat my fill
With my wrinkled crinkled wadded dollar bill
Lake Michigan waves hit the beach
And I stand and let them wash at my feet
And then I throw it just as far as I can
Into the chill
My wrinkled crinkled wadded dollar bill
Chorus
Cause I'm not bound and I never will.....be
To a wrinkled crinkled wadded dollar bill
No I'm not bound and I never will.......be
To a wrinkled crinkled wadded dollar bill
