$35 And A Dream

[Verse 1]
A share croppers family down and out in Alabama
Momma said it's time for us to leave
Sold everything we had, California was the land
Where we can pick the gold right off the trees

[Chorus]
With thirty-five dollars and a dream
The Maddox family hit the road in '33
Little did they know that the future held a Rose
The blossom of the Maddox family tree

[Verse 2]
Picking fruit in California, living in a hobo jungle
The music came as natural as could be
There exploring around the campfire, four bothers and a young girl
Never knew that they were making history

[Chorus]
With thirty-five dollars and a dream
The Maddox family hit the road in '33
Little did they know that the future held a Rose
The blossom of the Maddox family tree

[Verse 3]
From the sidewalks of Modesto to the big dance halls in Frisco
The Maddox family finally found their gold
The rest is country music history, forever in my memories
I love the Maddox brothers, I'm their Rose

[Chorus]
With thirty-five dollars and a dream
The Maddox family hit the road in '33
Little did they know that the future held a Rose
The blossom of the Maddox family tree
The blossom of the Maddox family tree
