As sweet solo-guitar track about how to turn pennies found laying on the ground into "magic pennies".

VERSE 1

We followed Grandfather down to the river

He said he had a secret that he wanted to share                                

Our eyes grew wide with anticipation                                             

As he made copper coins appear from thin air ... they were...

 

CHORUS 

Pennies, pennies he found in parking lots

He would pick them up 

And make a wish

And slide them in his shoes

They were magical pennies

Making his dreams come true…                                

VERSE 2

He said, “Close your eyes and go over ever detail

When you make a wish you hope might come true

And picture in your heart who the wish is really good for                          

Or you might wind up with only holes in your shoes”

 

REPEAT CHORUS 

BRIDGE

My little brother who was always a Doubting Thomas                             

Said, “How do you know you’ll really get the wish you need?”                

Grandpa stood up and spread his arms wide                                  

And said, “Children, you are all the proof I need to believe” ... in those...           

REPEAT CHORUS 

 

And to this day I’ve got to say

That I’m believing, too, In the magical pennies

Making my dreams come true
