Savoy Brown - 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
