One More Bad Penny Lyrics - Jerry Leger

One More Bad Penny 

One more bad penny comes back for you 

Said he only did you wrong 

'Cause you needed him too 

You don't walk, you don't talk 

Like the others do 

Take some darkness to murder the sight 

Of all the pretty words 

Supposed to keep you in the light 

It ain't clear when you hear 

Is that the other side 

He's got the mean blues for you 

What will you do when they're growing 

You're the girl who loves all the fools 

What can you do when you love him 

What can you do when you're in love 

The bar lights fade and the records won't play 

The engines howl and pound on your brain 

You say goodbye 

You don't realize 

You've already caved 

Flood waters ruin your land 

You're three feet in it where you stand 

Something's gotta change I hear you say 

But it's so hard to understand 

He's got the mean blues for you 

What will you do when they're growing 

You're the girl who loves all the fools 

What can you do when you love him 

What can you do when you're in love 

Baby, why 

Baby, why 

Baby, why can't we just let go 

Why, baby, why 

You don't want him to make much fuss 

The windows are open but the blinds are shut 

Then you yell, "go on, get out" 

That's just one more bad penny gone 

He's got the mean blues for you
