-
I am a penny
Lost out to sea
Traveling these lands far and wide
I own the open plains
More knowledge then the human brain
The secrets i may know
But what make this life fun and hard
I am tossed away or dropped without a care
which means i can go and travel afar
But knowing i am worthless to most
Sometimes i wished i had a home
If i did it would be hard to leave
Because i know there is someone that cares
I seen this world 3 times over
I was born in 1892 when the civil war was over
But the horrors i have seen in this life time
At once i was the penny of Hannibal Hector
I saw the horrors he did inside his pocket
The scream i heard made it hard for me to say
But i left unto another man traded for some bread
My travels again where far and wide
Exciting and great adventures with my companions
Nickel, Dime, Quarter were all so funny
But i met new ones almost everyday
you can say i made more friends than ever
Sometimes i had very funny encounters with an old pal
But in the end i am just a penny that has traveled afar
And a penny that has no worth to most
I am a penny
