Penny To My Name - Caroline Larsson[00:00:00]
BBill and I got married[00:00:07]
Following our first born[00:00:10]
Daddy left this gas & convenience[00:00:13]
Store just before he died[00:00:16]
And I was only nineteen[00:00:20]
When I had my third baby[00:00:23]
Sometimes I think maybe[00:00:27]
I should've left here long ago[00:00:29]
Travellers are stopping by[00:00:35]
Check their oil and their p.s.i.[00:00:39]
Gas up and away to fly[00:00:42]
Moving down the line[00:00:45]
But this beat-up truck & worn out[00:00:48]
Shoes always giving me the blues[00:00:50]
Billy sucking down[00:00:55]
The booze nearly every night[00:00:57]
I never seen the city lights[00:01:01]
How they must shine so bright[00:01:05]
Not like this country at night[00:01:08]
The sky's black as coal[00:01:11]
And this gas-station mountain home[00:01:14]
Not a thing to call my own[00:01:18]
How I wish I was alone[00:01:21]
With a penny to my name[00:01:24]
Strangers say this mountain[00:01:33]
Here is beautiful beyond compare[00:01:35]
But it's just a dumb old mountain there[00:01:39]
I see it every day[00:01:43]
If I could see sunset skies over[00:01:46]
Fields of grain or ocean-tides[00:01:49]
City skyline in the night[00:01:53]
I'll be dancing till the dawn[00:01:56]
I never seen the city lights[00:01:59]
How they must shine so bright[00:02:03]
Not like this country at night[00:02:06]
The sky's black as coal[00:02:09]
And this gas-station mountain home[00:02:12]
Not a thing to call my own[00:02:16]
How I wish I was alone[00:02:19]
With a penny to my name[00:02:22]
Bill and I got married[00:02:31]
Following our first born[00:02:34]
Daddy left this gas & convenience[00:02:37]
Store just before he died[00:02:39]
Maybe Bill & I someday[00:02:44]
Will find a chance to get away[00:02:47]
Until then it's here[00:02:51]
I'll stay wishing on a star[00:02:52]
I never seen the city lights[00:02:57]
How they must shine so bright[00:03:01]
Not like this country at night[00:03:04]
The sky's black as coal[00:03:06]
And this gas-station mountain home[00:03:09]
Not a thing to call my own[00:03:14]
How I wish I was alone[00:03:17]
With a penny to my name[00:03:19]
