Lyrics

SUE DOLLAR
Sue Dollar was her name, strange men was her game
As she walked up and down that old muddy holler

When I was just a young boy
standing on the back porch
and looking down the road of the holler
I met two men dressed in blue
looking for a woman named Sue
Said ?could you tell us where we could find old Sue Dollar?

Sue Dollar was her name, strange men were her game
As she walked up and down that old muddy holler
Dressed in an old tweet coat, with a chocker on her throat
Trying to drum up enough business to feed her family

She was a woman of the world, not much more than a girl
and at the age of 16 she looked thirty
Well, her daddy died from too much wine
and her mamma lost her mind
She managed to save up enough to move her family
I heard they moved to Cincinnati
Where she married a sugar daddy
Now they live in a mansion on a hill
She got servants at her feet and her own chauffer with a Cadillac fleet
and she never has to worry about her family having food to eat

Sue Dollar was her name, strange men were her game
As she walked up and down that old muddy holler
Dressed in an old tweet coat, with a chocker on her throat
Trying to drum up enough business to feed her family

In Blue Grass Holler, Hazard, Kentucky

Cleverly written, fun, upbeat, nice fusion of happiness and sadness...guess we'd have to call that pathos:-). Love it! Very well done.
