(Heaton/Rotheray)

Big coin that you toss for heads or tails 

Big coin that you let slip down the drain

Big coin didn't find where it landed  

Big coin, big coin



Big coin that you dropped in the river

Little raft that took you across

Little hand that pulled it from the gutter 

Big coin, big coin



It's a tiny little heart that challenges the coin

But the coin has no beat or no breath

Big coin won't even leave you a love note

Big coin, big death



Big coin that you held and you treasured

Big coin that you can't believe that you lost

Little kiss that helped you when you needed

Little kiss, big coin 



Little heart that has no exchange rate

Big coin that could join the IMF

Little heart is only the greedy 'cause it's poor  

Little heart, big coin 



It's a tiny little heart that challenges the coin

But the coin has no north or no south

Big coin says it will never ever leave you

Big coin, big mouth



Little heart,

it ain't gold, it ain't silver

Little heart,

it ain't wasted on me

Little heart, 

so much bigger than the coin

Little heart,

big guarantee

Little heart,

big guarantee



Little heart...



It's a tiny little heart that challenges the coin

But the coin has no north or no south

Big coin says it will never ever leave you

Big coin, big mouth
