[Verse 1]
As I was walking down the street last night
A pretty little girl came into sight
I bowed and smiled and asked her name
She said, "Hold it, bud, I don't play that game"
I reached in my pocket and to her big surprise
There was Lincoln staring her dead in the eye

[Chorus]
On a greenback, greenback dollar bill
Just a little piece of paper coated with chlorophyll

[Verse 2]
She looked at me with that familiar desire
Her eyes lit up like they were on fire
She said, "My name's Flo and you're on the right track
But look here, daddy, I wear furs on my back
So if you want to have fun in this man's land
Let Lincoln and Jackson start shaking hands"

[Chorus]
On a greenback, greenback dollar bill
Just a little piece of paper coated with chlorophyll

[Verse 3]
I didn't know what I was getting into
But I popped Lincoln and Jackson, too
I didn't mind seeing them fade out of sight
I just knew I'd have some fun last night
Whenever you're in town and looking for a thrill
If Lincoln can't get it, Jackson sure will
[Chorus]
On a greenback, greenback dollar bill
Just a little piece of paper coated with chlorophyll

[Verse 4]
We went to a nightspot where the lights were low
Dined and danced and I was ready to go
I got out of my seat and when Flo arose
She said, "Hold on, daddy, while I powder my nose"
I sat back down with a smiling face
While she went down to the powder place

[Chorus]
With my greenback, greenback dollar bill
Just a little piece of paper coated with chlorophyll

[Verse 5]
The music stopped and the lights came on
I looked around and saw I was all alone
I didn't know how long Flo had been gone
But a nose powder sure didn't take that long
I left the place with tears in my eyes
As I waved Lincoln and Jackson a last goodbye

[Chorus]
On a greenback, greenback dollar bill
Just a little piece of paper coated with chlorophyll
