Jeni Hankins & Billy Kemp: Listen & Lyrics

for Jim Lauderdale, with thanks

If I ever get ten dollars
gonna buy me a three piece suit and
gonna buy you a diamond ring
gonna marry you

If I ever get ten dollars
gonna find us a piece of land and
build a house with a picket fence
with my own two hands

If I ever get ten dollars
gonna quit this railway car and
hang up my walkin’ shoes and
stay right where you are

If I ever get ten dollars
gonna buy me a three piece suit and
gonna buy you a diamond ring
gonna marry you
