[00:01.66] As I was walking down the street last night
[00:05.04] A pretty little girl came into sight
[00:07.89] I bowed and smiled and asked her name
[00:10.93] She said hold it bud I don't play that game
[00:14.00] I reached in my pocket and to her big surprise
[00:17.07] There was lincoln staring her dead in the eyes
[00:19.52] On a greenback greenback dollar bill
[00:25.25] Just a little piece of paper coated with chlorophyll
[00:31.71] She looked at me with that familiar desire
[00:34.76] Her eyes lit up like they were on fire
[00:37.68] She said my name's flo and you're on the right track
[00:40.87] But look here daddy I wear furs on my back
[00:43.75] So if you want to have fun in this man's land
[00:46.81] Let lincoln and jackson start shaking hands
[00:49.20] On a greenback greenback dollar bill
[00:54.87] Just a little piece of paper coated with chlorophyll
[01:01.40] I didn't know what I was getting into
[01:04.33] But I popped lincoln and jackson too
[01:07.22] I didn't mind seeing them fade out of sight
[01:10.26] I just knew I'd have some fun last night
[01:13.25] Whenever you in town and looking for a thrill
[01:16.26] If lincoln can't get it jackson sure will
[01:18.54] On a greenback greenback dollar bill
[01:24.19] Just a little piece of paper coated with chlorophyll
[01:28.02]
[01:48.59] We went to a nightspot where the lights were low
[01:51.44] Dined and danced and I was ready to go
[01:54.39] I got out of my seat and when flo arose
[01:57.34] She said hold on daddy while I powder my nose
[02:00.39] I sat back down with a smiling face
[02:03.34] While she went down to the powder place
[02:05.63] With my greenback greenback dollar bill
[02:11.45] Just a little piece of paper coated with chlorophyll
[02:18.01] The music stopped and the lights came on
[02:20.92] I looked around and saw I was all alone
[02:23.85] I didn't know how long flo had been gone
[02:26.87] But a nose powder sure didn't take that long
[02:29.92] I left the place with tears in my eyes
[02:32.84] As I waved lincoln and Jackson a last goodbye
[02:35.28] On a greenback greenback dollar bill
[02:40.95] Just a little piece of paper coated with chlorophyll
