Give Me A Penny Lyrics

Give Me A Penny lyrics

Trad. Arr-Youlden/Simmonds-Chrysalis Music Ltd 

. 

My goodtime friends have put me down 

I'm all alone in your town 

You know I don't have no place to go 

The woman I love she don't want me no more 

I'm just trying to explain 

I need a penny to call my baby 

You don't seem to understand 

I need a penny to call my baby 

You know she asked me to call her on the phone 

She got the nerve to tell me she all alone 

I'm just trying to explain 

I need a penny to call my baby 



I'm just trying to make you understand 

I need a penny to call my baby 

Now I don't have no peace of mind 

I'm just trying to seek what I can find 

I'm just trying to explain 

I need a penny to call my baby 



Now I want to tell you when I wake up in the morning 

And I find now baby I'm all by myself 

I feel so disatisfied 

When I go to work and I come home in the evening 

And there ain't nobody there 

I feel so disatisfied 

Oh give me a penny baby, give me a penny baby 

My wife, now my wife she left me 

Give me a penny 

Give me a penny
