Throw A Penny

(album: Mr. Natural - 1974)

Little child, I have found
If I stood up and looked around
I'd see a brand new face staring right back at me
I believe , I am sure
That I'm taller then I was before
Building a brand new bridge into sincerity
But it's the times like this , we must learn to grow

Throw a penny for my children , they are going down
When the light shines down much brighter , many souls are found
And can't believe what they're saying in the overground
Throw a penny for my children going down

Listen to the wise man as he breathes
He's really loving me (loving me)
He must be loving me (loving me)
At night I turn my face into the wind
And I whisper secretly , what means the most to me
And bring him close

Make it bad , make it good
Make it easy to be understood
I see a velvet day breaking across the sky
I believe , I am sure
I am taller then I was before
Building a brand new bridge
I know I'm gonna try
But it's the times like this , we must find out why

Throw a penny for my children they are going down
When the light shines down much brighter , many souls are found
And I can't believe what they're saying in the overground
Throw a penny for my children going down

Throw a penny for my children , for my children going down
Throw a penny for my children , for my children going down
Throw a penny for my children , for my children going down
Throw a penny for my children , for my children going down [fade]
