With the prices of everything being so high, we had the idea to write a humorous song about how children don't realize how difficult it is to earn money, just like the saying goes, "Money Doesn't Grow On Trees!" Right now we are all experiencing things being more expensive than ever! So, our question to you is, What will you buy with a penny?
lyrics
Hey look
I found a penny
Wow, a penny
What will you buy with a penny
When I was a child I would often think
I’d think about all of the things
All of the things that I would buy
That I would buy
Buy with a penny
Tell me baby
What will you buy
What will you buy
Buy with a penny
What will you buy
Tell me baby
What will you buy
Buy with a penny
I’ll buy a boat, a boat for a penny
Sail through the waves in my penny boat
In my penny boat, in my penny boat
I’ll sail through the waves in my penny boat
I’ll buy a boat, a boat for a penny
Sail through the waves in my penny boat
In my penny boat, in my penny boat
I’ll sail through the waves in my penny boat
When I was a child I would often think
I’d think about all of the things
All of the things that I would buy
That I would buy
Buy with a penny
Tell me baby
What will you buy
What will you buy
Buy with a penny
What will you buy
Tell me baby
What will you buy
Buy with a penny
I’ll buy a plane, a plane for a penny
Fly through the sky in my penny plane
In my penny plane, in my penny plane
I’ll fly through the sky in my penny plane
I’ll buy a plane, a plane for a penny
Fly through the sky in my penny plane
In my penny plane, in my penny plane
I’ll fly through the sky in my penny plane
When I was a child I would often think
I’d think about all of the things
All of the things that I would buy
That I would buy
Buy with a penny
Tell me baby
What will you buy
What will you buy
Buy with a penny
What will you buy
Tell me baby
What will you buy
Buy with a penny
I’ll buy a train, a train for a penny
I’ll ride on the tracks in my penny train
In my penny train, in my penny train
I’ll ride on the tracks in my penny train
I’ll buy a train, a train for a penny
I’ll ride on the tracks in my penny train
In my penny train, in my penny train
I’ll ride on the tracks in my penny train
Tell me baby
What will you buy
What will you buy
Buy with a penny
What will you buy
Tell me baby
What will you buy
Buy with a penny
Hmm
Maybe I’ll buy a jet ski
What will you buy
Buy with a penny
A car or a motorcycle
What will you buy
But with a penny
You can’t buy any of that with a penny
Hmm
