Roger McGuinn Bag Full Of Money written by Roger McGuinn/Jacques Levy
I grew up believing in Jesse and Frank
Cause we never had nothing or no one to thank
And I came pretty close to unloading a bank
But I was saved by my draft board when they made me a Yank
In the 102nd they busted your hump
The taught me a man isn't always a chump
In the course of Korea I learned how to jump
In the card game of life I was holding a trump
Floating I'm floating on down thru the sky
Never had no ambition to learn how to fly
Be glad when it's over be happy to land
With this bag full of money I've got in my hands
If you can't get a job and they think your insane
If the years of your youth have been washed down the drain
And if you wake up one morning with nothing but pain
It was then I decided to grab me a plane
With all of my training it wasn't to tough
Now I'm thru taken orders and taken their guff
Gonna buy me a cadilac and some luxury stuff
Cause a veterans pension ain't nearly enough
