"Ballad of Forty Dollars" is a song written and recorded by American country music artist Tom T. Hall. It was released in October 1968 as the fourth and final single from the album of the same name, ''Ballad of Forty Dollars''. The song was Hall's first top 10 on the U.S. country singles chart, peaking at number 4 on both the U.S. chart and the Canadian country singles chart. == Content ==
The song is narrated by a cemetery caretaker. He observes the funeral of a man and the people coming bid him farewell, the preacher, the great-uncle’s limousine, his grieving wife, the military taps (as he probably was a war veteran), and the gossip about his estate. Then he concludes by saying he was unlucky because the dead man owed him forty dollars, as it was lost forever.
