36 Inches High Songtext
Once I was a soldier
l rode on a big white horse
Silver pistols at my side
Carrying the flags of war
And I Iost track of the men who fell
In the cannon's roar
l never got over being a soldier

Once I was a tax man
Collecting dollars and dimes
l heard the rich man grumble
I heard the poor man cry
Some few couldn't afford to pay
Were put to a shackle and key
l never got over being a tax man

Once I was a ruler
About twelve inches long
Three times me made a yardstick
36 inches high
36 inches high was l
36 inches high
i never got over 36 inches high
