英文乡村歌曲：Last Dollar

1-2-3 Like a bird I sing
Cause¹ you've given² me the most beautiful set³ of wings
I'm so glad you're here today
Cause tomorrow I might⁴ have to go and fly away
Hey!
I'm down to my last dollar
I've walk right though⁶ my shoes
Just a small reminder⁷
of the hell⁸ that I've gone through
But look at me still smiling
As⁵ I'm wondering⁹ what I'll do
Since¹⁰ I ain't got¹¹ nothing
I've got nothing to lose¹²
Everybody¹³ say “HaHaHa, HaHaHa”
My friends are always giving me
Watches, hats, and wine¹⁴
That's how I know this is serious¹⁵
That's how I know it's time
I don't have to worry
About things that I don't have
Cause if I ain't got nothing
I've got nothing to hold me back
1-2-3 Like a bird I sing
Cause yo've given me the most beautiful set of wings
I'm so glad you're here today
Cause tomorrow I might have to go and fly away
Fly away, fly away
There's nothing that's worth¹⁶ keeping me
From places I should go
From happyville to lovingland
I'm gonna tour¹⁷ from coast¹⁸ to coast
I'm leaving everything behind
There's not much that I need
Cause If I ain't got nothing
I'm footloose and fancy¹⁹ free²⁰
Look at me so free
Nothings holding me down(down)
Look at me so free
Can't keep my feet on the ground²¹

1-2-3 Like a bird I sing
Cause you've given me the most beautiful set of wings
I'm so glad you're here today
Cause tomorrow I might have to go and
1-2-3 Like a bird I sing
Cause you've given me the most beautiful set of wings
I'm so glad you're here today
Cause tomorrow I might have to go and fly away
Fly away, Fly Away, Fly away, Fly away
Fly away!!
