—Bill Monroe
I wrote to my girl last night ( x2 )
I wrote to my girl that I wasn't comin' home
Cause my last old dollar is done gone
Chorus:
Oh my last old dollar is done gone ( x2 )
Now how can a poor boy get back home
When his last old dollar is done gone
I've drank and I've rambled around ( x2 )
Now the time has come when I wanna go home
But my last old dollar is done gone
Now the east bound train's done gone ( x2 )
Now that train's done gone and left me all alone
Cause my last old dollar is done gone
Verse and Chorus:
| I | I | I | V |
| I | I – VIm | I – V | I |
