Between Thieves - Two Pennies Lyrics
Walking down the street just the other dayThere was an old man who came up to me to sayHe said you look like a fine young manAnd I know you don't know who I am.He said, "I used to be the president of this big corporation, but IHaven't been quite the same since me and my wifes seperation.I hate to ask but, have you got a dollar to spare?"And I said, "Sorry sir, I haven't got much money,But I've got something, something I can share."I've got two pennies in my pocketAnd I know that's not alot for a young man.I've got two pennies in my pocketBut what's in my heart is worth more than what's in my hand.He just looked at me with this strange sort of stareLooked at the ground and ran his fingers through his uncombed hairHe said "I don't understand what you mean"And I said "Silver and Gold, Have I noneBut what I have I will give to youIf you'll just listen to my two cents, i'll introduce you to the king'Cause you've got a mansion waiting up aboveIt can be yours if you accept my father's love"All I have is peace, and it's all I need.All I have is truth, and I give it to you, I give it to you.
