Songs

I didn't find
The lucky penny
So I flipped it
Over
And left it for
Someone else to find

And a dime
Just in time
For the little kid behind me
To pick it up and yell:
Hey, Mom, I found a dime
Then I turned around the corner
And I dropped another dollar
Just in case the street needed some more cash

In the end
I made it home
With nothing in my pockets
Except some cigarettes
And
Some stones

I pick 'em up
When I go walking
Some are shiny
All are dirty
Some are just pebbles that might grow up to be stones

As an adult
No one can stop you
From getting your hands dirty
When you're walking home alone

Then I saw a little black cat
Cross the street before a fast cab
Flashed and disappeared into the night
He glanced back with understanding
Of a future life impending
And we both knew it wasn't his time yet

I didn't find the lucky penny
So I flipped it over
And left it for someone else to find

And a dime
Just in time
For the little kid behind me
To pick it up and yell:
Hey, Mom, I found a dime

And a dime just in time
For the little kid behind me
To pick it up and yell
Hey, Mom, I found a dime

To pick it up and yell
Hey, Mom, I found a dime
