|
She sat all alone on a bus out of |
|
Beaumont The courage of just 18 years |
|
A penny and quarter were taped to a letter |
|
And momma's goodbye in her ears |
|
She watched as her high school faded behind her |
|
And the house with the white picket fence |
|
Then she read the note that her momma had wrote |
|
Wrapped up with 26 cents |
|
When you get lonely, call me |
|
Anytime at all |
|
I'll be there with you, always |
|
Anywhere at all |
|
There's nothing |
|
I've got that |
|
I wouldn't give |
|
And money is never enough |
|
Here's a penny for your thoughts |
|
A quarter for the call |
|
And all of your momma's love |
|
A penny and a quarter buys a whole lot of nothing |
|
Taped to an old wrinkled note |
|
And when she didn't have much she had all momma's love |
|
Inside that old envelope |
|
When you get lonely, call me |
|
Anytime at all |
|
I'll be there with you, always |
|
Anywhere at all |
|
There's nothing |
|
I've got that |
|
I wouldn't give |
|
And money is never enough |
|
Here's a penny for your thoughts |
|
A quarter for the call |
|
And all of your momma's love |
|
Oh its been years since momma's been gone |
|
But when she holds the coins she feels her love just as strong |
|
When you get lonely, call me |
|
Anytime at all |
|
I'll be there with you, always |
|
Anywhere at all |
|
There's nothing |
|
I've got that |
|
I wouldn't give |
|
And money is never enough |
|
Here's a penny for your thoughts |
|
A quarter for the call |
|
And all of your momma's love |
|
Here's a penny for your thoughts quarter for the call |
|
And all of your momma's love |
