"5 Pennies" lyrics - NORMAN GREENBAUM

I was walking down the main street
With my eyes open wide
I was lookin' side-to-side

I was walking down the main street
With five pennies in my hand
But I couldn't spend them
In this inflated land

Maybe I'd find somebody
With five pennies just like me
Maybe we could pinch those pennies and see

Oh, I might wind up with ten
Or I might wind up with three
Any way is all right with me

I was walking down the main street
With five pennies in my hand
But I couldn't spend them
In this inflated land
