Penny (C) J.Birch 2005. Young man’s solo ballad

If I , had , a penny

I would , buy , my love , some shoes

Because , she hasn't , any

To take , away , her blues

If I , had , a penny

I would , buy , my love , a pearl

Because , she said , to me

That she , would be , my girl

And if I had a million

I wouldn't need to cry

My lover would have everything

And then so would I

But for me

To watch

Her walk

Down the stairs

When her hair is neatly combed

Is everything

I ever wanted

Just to have her here

The only thing I ever wanted

Is just to have her here

If I , had , a dollar

My love , would have , it all

Because , she is , everything , to me

She is , my girl

And if I had a million

I wouldn't need to cry

My lover would have everything

And then so would I
