"Lucky Penny"
(Boo Hewerdine / Eddi Reader)

I found a lucky penny
So I thought my luck would change
Easy times and carefree days
Would be mine again

When I saw it shining
Down in the dirt
I bent down and picked it up
Held it till it hurt

Said I hope you're a lucky one
I hope you're a lucky one
I pray you're a lucky one
I hope you're a lucky one

I keep it with me all the time
Ever near at hand
When the world is closing in
You take what you can

Said I hope you're a lucky one
I hope you're a lucky one
I pray you're a lucky one
I hope you're a lucky one

I found a lucky penny
My superstitions failed
Who am I fooling?
Good fortune's not for sale

I hope you're a lucky one
I hope you're a lucky one
I pray you're a lucky one
I hope you're a lucky one
