it’s back in my pocket
I don’t know,
        should it stop there
or should I spend it,
        share my luck
            my lucky   lucky penny

it slides ‘tween my fingers
       it’s small, my hand lingers
wants the luck,
       the luck it will bring

oooo my lucky penny
    don’t know how
        the story will end

I make a wish,
        holding the penny
   make a wish
        for luck never-ending
          with my luck,
               my lucky penny
