Well, now Dboys, I've been to Bethlehem. Rode there on a big steam Gtrain. Lost two fingers in the Dsteel mills. And I Aain't goin' back Dagain.
I Dfought for my country, Lord knows, I did my Gbest. Crawlin' 'cross some Dforeign field, They Apinned a ribbon to my Dchest.
Chorus:
GSo, pass around the bottle, boys, Let's talk about old Dtimes. Night's Drollin' in, it's cold as sin, AHere on the welfare Dline.
DServed on the Georgia Road Gang. Couldn't pay the debts I Gowed. 'Cause I'm ain't made of Dsilver, And I Aain't never seen no Dgold.
DI still remember Rachael, Soft as a velvet Ggown. They layed her in the Dpauper's grave, On the Aother side of Dtown.
(Repeat Chorus) Break: D G D A D
Now Dsome folks are born to money, You know I wish them Gwell. If the devil should ever Dwant my soul, I Aswear I'd never Dsell.
(Repeat Chorus 2x)
