"Pennies" lyrics - THE COWSILLS

Well, it seems that someone told you how to live,
And to get the most from life you take, don't give.
Love is just a word, something that you've heard before,
With no changes, enter strangers where love used to be.
And once more you're saving your Pennies for a rainy day,
Counting the hours while your life slips away.

In your little ivory tower it must get very cold,
And you think that life can just be bought and sold.
But I disagree, it means so much more to me,
With no changes, enter strangers where love used to be.
And once more you're saving your Pennies for a rainy day,
Counting the hours while your life slips away.

Will you ever learn?
Will you ever learn?
Will you ever learn? You know it's gettin' very late,
And before you realize it, love can turn to hate.

And once more you're saving your Pennies for a rainy day,
Counting the hours while your life slips away.

Saving you Pennies for a rainy day.

[Repeat and fade]
