about

First heard the song in Aberdeen (Scotland!), tune from the film 'The Long Riders'. Fiddle tuned GDAE

lyrics

I wish I had a nickel, I wish I had a dime.
Wish I had a pretty little girl, to talk to all the time

(Ch) Going across the sea, going across the sea.
Don’t give a damn for no damn girl don’t give a damn ‘bout me.

Won’t you change a nickel, won’t you change a dime?
Won’t you go to Tennessee, and change your name to mine?

(Ch)

The last time I saw her, she was standing by the door,
Shoes and stockings in her hand, feet all over the floor.

(Ch)

The higher up the cherry tree, the riper grow the cherries.
The more you hug and kiss the girls, the sooner they’ll get married

(Ch)

I wished I had a needle and thread as fine as I can sew
I’d tie them pretty girls to my side, and down the road I’d go

(Ch)
