5 Pennies Songtext
von Norman Greenbaum

I was walking the main street,
My eyes open wide.
I was lookin′ side to side.
I was walking down the main street,
Five pennies in my hand.
But I couldn't spend them,
In this inflated land.
Maybe I′d find somebody,
With five pennies just like me. Maybe we could pitch those pennies and see!
Oh, I might wind up with ten,
Or I might wind up with three.
Any way is all right with me.
{Whistling}
I was walking down the main street,
Five pennies in my hand.
But I couldn't spend them,
In this inflated land.
