Let me tell you a tale for a penny One that you can not hear anywhere else Not anywhere else I heard from a birdy it doesn’t end purdy It doesn’t end well. No it never ends well.
Let me spin you a yarn for a cent Lord, would it not be a sin to deny yourselves a tale? A penny, a penny, a penny for an old beggar-man’s story A story. A penny for a tale.
There once was a doggy (woof woof woof) She pranced in the moon with a mouthful of shiny red pennies She lept and she wagged, so proud of her shiny red pennies Leaping with glee
She trotted by the river (trot trot trot) And oh, bless my soul, she saw her reflection in water A pup with a jaw full of shiny red pennies In water
She trotted as she plotted To pirate these pennies - oh, how they teased
Lord, lord, that greed, it’ll kill you. Lord, lord, go on, pass the hat, will you? Your purse strings are tight. Bleed for a sinner I just need a few pennies more! A few pennies more!
But greedy, so greedy (me me me) She snarled as she swiped And struck at the mud At the water A foolish pooch loots from herself in the wter Her reflection struck back
Lord, I want to go onwith the song But don’t make it bring up what she did to that pup That cute little pup I just might well up But I’ll continue my rhyme for a dime Or a penny is fine These are difficult times Yes, difficult times. Thank you sir, you’re too kind
Lord, lord, that greed, it’ll kill you. Lord, lord, go on, pass the hat, will ya? Your purse strings are tight. Bleed for a sinner I just need a few pennies more! A few pennies more! Lord, lord, that greed, it’ll kill you. Lord, lord, go on, pass the hat, will ya? Your purse strings are tight. Bleed for a sinner I just need a few pennies more! A few pennies more! A few pennies more
And so did our doggie (bark bark bark) She’d kill for a bite Of those shiny red pennies She left and she barked at the dog in the water But her pennies, her pennies THey dropped down, down And after them, the shot Down, down, down in the waters below! God rest her soul.Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
