Song: Lucky Penny

As I was walking down the road, the day both bright and sunny
I saw a shining in the grass, it was a lucky penny
Lucky penny, lucky penny,
Lucky penny, lucky penny,
I saw a shining in the grass, it was a lucky penny

I shouted out, all full of glee, with chortles deep and many
Oh happy day, I did declare, to find a lucky penny
Lucky penny, lucky penny,
Lucky penny, lucky penny,
Oh happy day, I did declare, to find a lucky penny

It was so sweet, to find it there, twas oh so sweet as honey,
That I began to sing and dance about my lucky penny
Lucky penny, lucky penny,
Lucky penny, lucky penny,
That I began to sing and dance about my lucky penny

I sung and danced the day away, 'til I fell on my fanny
And all because it was so dear to find a lucky penny
Lucky penny, lucky penny,
Lucky penny, lucky penny,
And all because it was so dear to find a lucky penny

When I was done, I caught my breath, and reached to take my penny
But when I looked, to my surprise, I found there wasn't any
Wasn't any, wasn't any,
Wasn't any, wasn't any,
But when I looked, to my surprise, I found there wasn't any

I searched the ground, and all around, in every nook and cranny,
It seems while I was singing, someone took my lucky penny
Lucky penny, lucky penny,
Lucky penny, lucky penny,
It seems while I was singing, someone took my lucky penny

Since then I've learned that when you find a penny, do be canny,
And don't go singing on and on about your lucky penny
Lucky penny, lucky penny,
Lucky penny, lucky penny,
And don't go singing on and on about your lucky penny
Lucky penny, lucky penny,
Lucky penny, lucky penny,
And don't go singing on and on about your lucky penny
Lucky penny, lucky penny,
Lucky penny, lucky penny,
And don't go singing on and on about your lucky penny
Lucky penny, lucky penny,
Lucky penny, lucky penny,
And don't go singing on and on about your lucky penny
