One silver dollar, bright silver dollar
Changing hands, changing hands
Endlessly rolling, wasted and stolen
Changing hands, changing hands
Spent for a baby's trinket
Won by a gambler's lust
Pierced by an outlaw's bullet
And lost in the blood-red dust
One silver dollar, worn silver dollar
Changing hands, changing hands
Love is a shining dollar
Bright as a church bell's chime
Gambled and spent and wasted
And lost in the dust of time
One silver dollar, worn silver dollar
Changing hearts, changing lives
Changing hands
