[00:05.47]Pull up an easy chair and sit yourself down and lean back
[00:10.57]While we tell ya about the folks
[00:12.24]Who live in the town of Greenback
[00:16.02]They never have to work on their hands and knees
[00:21.23]'Cause they live in a place where money grows on trees
[00:26.47]Oh the money tree the money tree
[00:29.43]It's a beautiful sight to see
[00:32.29]Why couldn't it happen to you and me
[00:36.44]There isn't a person in town who isn't a regal spender
[00:41.85]And they never wear a frown for lack of that legal tender
[00:47.36]They're all ten years ahead on their income tax
[00:52.53]And the whole town's driving next year's Cadillacs
[00:57.72]Oh the money tree the money tree
[01:01.00]It's a beautiful sight to see
[01:03.59]Why couldn't it happen to you and me
[01:07.59]Well it grows fresh new bills that snap and crack
[01:11.02]As fast as you pick 'em it grows 'em back
[01:13.70]Every day there's a bumper crop
[01:16.23]With a million dollar bill way up on top
[01:31.59]Now there is just one way to visit the town of Greenback
[01:37.25]Pull up an easy chair and sit yourself down and lean back
[01:42.33]Then close your eyes and suddenly you will see
[01:47.54]That beautiful lovely wonderful money tree
[01:52.66]Oh the money tree the money tree
[01:55.65]It's a beautiful sight to see
[01:58.51]Why couldn't it happen to you and me
[02:03.79]Why couldn't it happen to you and me
