Lucky Penny Lyrics

Lately, life's been throwing everything that it can find

And I've been feeling like I've wasted all my precious earthly time

And Lord knows this life on the road has been so hard on me and you

Probably why you called me up last night just to say"honey, we're through"

But if you got it in your heart, could you grant me this one request

Cause lately, of me, bad luck has gotten the best

So, if you got it in your heart, could you grant me this plea

The next time you see one, won't you turn a pretty penny heads side up for me

Now, I'm not one for superstitions or fantasies

But it's looking like this future of mine ain't gonna be no road of ease

Lord knows heartbreak don't make these mountain highways any easier to traverse

At the rate I'm going, I'm starting to think I might just be better off in a hearse

But if I'm gone, there ain't no way you could ever come back

Well, right now you wouldn't even come to my funeral if I had me one of them heart attacks

So, I'll keep on picking and singing through the low, lonely and cold night

And I figure if I make a little money on it, baby, you just might

Come on back to me when there's a little more financial security

So, if you got it in your heart, could you grant me this plea

The next time you see one, won't you turn a pretty penny heads side up for me

The next time you see one, won't you turn a pretty penny heads side up for me
