Lyrics:
I had houses on the fanciest boulevards A wallet full of platinum credit cards Quoted in “Money Magazine, ” Traveled the world and wherever I went Paid no attention to the cash I spent Just like that, it fell apart at the seams. Business stopped all over town My world went spinning round Wall Street said it was bad news That financial tide was rising Had a plan to start downsizing It hit me… I have the Green Back Blues Chorus: Green Back Blues Was living like Howard Hughes Green Back Blues Now I have holes in my shoes Went from rags to riches And back to rags again And now I have those …Green Back Blues The market crashed and burst my bubble Left me in financial trouble No more parties with Dom Perignon Tried to sell but no one’s buying Makes a grown man start a cryin’ All that was mine is now gone. The Bank sold everything I own Pennies on the dollar; no meat on the bone And now, what is left to lose? Funny, thought I was a fighter Now I feel a whole lot lighter It’s me and these Green Back Blues… Chorus Adios to my beachfront condo Au revoir to the grand piano So long to that Caribbean cruise No more dwelling on the sorrow Just look forward to tomorrow When I can say Sayonara… to those Green Back Blues
