Eva Cassidy - Penny To My Name songtekst
Je score:
Bill and I got married, following our first born Daddy left this gas and convenience store just before he died And I was only nineteen when I had my third baby And sometimes I think, maybe I should've left here long ago Travellers are stopping by, check their oil and their p.s.i. Gas up and away to fly, moving down the line But this beat-up truck and worn out shoes Always giving me the blues Billy sucking down the booze nearly every night I never seen the city lights How they must shine so bright Not like this country night The sky's black as coal And this gas-station mountain home Not a thing to call my own How I wish I was alone With a penny to my name Strangers say this mountain here is beautiful beyond compare But it's just a dumb old mountain there, I see it every day If I could see sunset skies over fields of grain or ocean-tides City skyline in the night, I'll be dancing 'til the dawn I never seen the city lights How they must shine so bright Not like this country night The sky's black as coal And this gas-station mountain home Not a thing to call my own How I wish I was alone With a penny to my name Bill and I got married, following our first born Daddy left this gas and convenience store just before he died Maybe Bill and I someday will find a chance to get away Until then it's here I'll stay, wishing on a star I never seen the city lights How they must shine so bright Not like this country night The sky's black as coal And this gas-station mountain home Not a thing to call my own How I wish I was alone With a penny to my name
