GREENBACK DOLLAR, WATCH AND CHAIN
(Harris)
RAY HARRIS (SUN 272, 1957)

Well, I don't want your green back dollar
Well, I don't want your watch and chain
All I want is your heart baby
Won't you take me back again

Well, once I had a loving sweetheart
Who thought the world of me
Till another came between us
Now she cares, but not for me

Well, many a night with you I rambled
Down beside the ocean blue
In your heart you loved another
In my dreams, I still love you

Well, I don't want your green back dollar
Well, I don't want your watch and chain
All I want is you my baby
Won't you take me back again

Well, I don't want your green back dollar
Well, I don't want your watch and chain
All I want is your heart baby
Won't you take me back again
Well, won't you take me back again

(Alternative ending)
Well, mama said that we should marry
Papa said it'd never do
But if you still want me baby
Well, I will run away with you
Well, I will run away with you
