Bad Penny Lyrics - Top Priority - Rory Gallagher

Well, like a bad penny you've turned up again 

You're in my sights, there's a mist on my lens 

I think you know how it was when I tripped and fell 

Well, you've double-dealed me, baby and I broke like a shell, oh 

Well, like a bad penny you've sure lost the glow 

But I'm out of reach, your smile's sure gone cold 

Well, it can't ever be like it was then 

Well, don't you fool with me, baby 

Well, don't you mess with my plans 

Some stormy nights 

Your memory haunts me 

You won't go away 

Well, like a bad penny you have turned up in the change 

Try to fit into the picture, you can't get inside the frame 

I think you know I'm still sore but I'm on the mend 

Times sure have changed, it won't happen again 

Well, like a bad penny spins around and around 

Well, you won't know what's gone wrong when it all falls down 

You got to learn from now on to stop playing games 

You ought to keep on moving, you got to spin on your way 

Some lonely nights 

I hear you calling 

Won't you go away? 

Well, like a bad penny you have turned up again 

You're in my sights, well, there's a mist on my lens 

I think you know how it was when I tripped and fell 

Well, you've double-dealed me, baby, I cracked like a shell, yeah
