Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Once I was a slave at the[C] saw mill
[G]Talk about a poor boy,
talk about a poor boy
Let me have a [C]dollar [G]bill
My work was so hard at [C]the saw mill
[G]Talk about a poor boy,
talk about a poor boy
Let me have a [C]dollar bill
[G]

[Verse 2]
[C]See my teardrops falling down
My wife left the saw mill town
She said saw mill life had been a [D]sin
The gravy were too thin

[Verse 3]
I [G]can't work no more at the [C]saw mill
[G]Talk about a poor boy,
talk about a poor boy
Let me have a [C]dollar bill

[Verse 4]
Well, [G]if you bring your wife to [C]the saw mill
[G]How you gonna please her,
how you gonna please her
When she wants a [C]dollar [G]bill
She'll run away and leave
you at [C]the saw mill
[G]Women like a dollar, women like a dollar
Yes, and women [C]always [G]will

[C]See my teardrops falling down
My wife left the saw mill town
She said saw mill life had been [D]a sin
The gravy were too thin
