Lyrics

Drop your silver in my tambourine
Help a poor man fill the pretty dream
Give me pennies, I'll take anything
Now listen while I play...
My green tambourine

Watch the jingle-jangle start to shine
Reflections of the music that is mine
When you toss a coin you'll hear it sing
Now listen while I play...
My green tambourine

Drop a dime before I walk away
Any song you want I'll laugh and play
Money feeds my music machine
Now listen while I play...
My green tambourine

Listen and I'll play, yeah,
My green tambourine
If you listen I will play, yeah
My green tambourine
