Lyrics

One silver dollar, bright silver dollar,
Changing hands, changing hands.
Endlessly rollin', wasted or stolen,
Changing hands, changing hands.
Spent for a beer he's drinking,
Won by a gambler's lust,
Pierced by an outlaw's bullet
And rusted 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 dart of time.
One silver dollar, worn silver dollar,
Changing hearts, changing lives,
Changing hands.
Written by: Ken Darby, Lionel Newman
