One silver dollar
Bright silver dollar
Changing hands, Changing hands
And lustily rollin'
Wasted or stolen
Changing hands, Changing hands
Spent for a beer he's drinking
Won by a gambler's lost
Pierced by an outlaw's bullet
And found in the blood red dust
One silver dollar, worn silver dollar
Changing hands, Changing hands
Love is a shining dollar
Bright as a church bell's chime
Gambled and spent, and wasted
And lost in a dust of time
One silver dollar, worn silver dollar
Changing hearts, Changing lives
Changing hands
