GUEST,henryp Any February Songs? (165* d) RE: Any February Songs? 25 Feb 25


On 25 February 1862, Abraham Lincoln issued an emergency currency called “greenbacks” during the US civil war.

GREENBACK DOLLAR - Hoyt Axon - 1962

And I don't give a damn about a greenback dollar
Spend it fast as I can
For a wailing song and a good guitar
The only things that I understand, poor boy
The only things that I understand
