When I was a kid I picked up pennies
I spent them all at the five and dime store
In my pockets I know I had many
More copper pennies I was looking for
I used to buy a lot of sweet candy
I shared it with a girl that I adored
She said that was neat and I was dandy
But I don’t pick up pennies anymore
Starbucks, I like to call them all Fourbucks
That’s the least you pay for a coffee pour
I lined up my pennies like mallard ducks
They pointed their fingers toward the front door
I used to buy a lot of sweet candy
I shared it with a girl that I adored
She said that was neat and I was dandy
But I don’t pick up pennies anymore
And I don’t go to Fourbucks that’s for sure
