Penny To My Name - Caroline Larsson/Bengt Magnusson
BBill and I got married
Following our first born
Daddy left this gas & convenience
Store just before he died
And I was only nineteen
When I had my third baby
Sometimes I think maybe
I should've left here long ago
Travellers are stopping by
Check their oil and their p.s.i.
Gas up and away to fly
Moving down the line
But this beat-up truck & worn out
Shoes always giving me the blues
Billy sucking down
The booze nearly every night
I never seen the city lights
How they must shine so bright
Not like this country at night
The sky's black as coal
And this gas-station mountain home
Not a thing to call my own
How I wish I was alone
With a penny to my name
Strangers say this mountain
Here is beautiful beyond compare
But it's just a dumb old mountain there
I see it every day
If I could see sunset skies over
Fields of grain or ocean-tides
City skyline in the night
I'll be dancing till the dawn
I never seen the city lights
How they must shine so bright
Not like this country at night
The sky's black as coal
And this gas-station mountain home
Not a thing to call my own
How I wish I was alone
With a penny to my name
Bill and I got married
Following our first born
Daddy left this gas & convenience
Store just before he died
Maybe Bill & I someday
Will find a chance to get away
Until then it's here
I'll stay wishing on a star
I never seen the city lights
How they must shine so bright
Not like this country at night
The sky's black as coal
And this gas-station mountain home
Not a thing to call my own
How I wish I was alone
With a penny to my name
