Zola - Pretty Purple Penny Lyrics

One day when I was feeling sad and blue
And time was passing by
I was wandering around with nothing to do
When something caught my eye
It stopped me in my tracks
There was no looking back
For that special sparkly something made me smile

I found a pretty purple penny
I don't think there can be many
'Cause I know I've never seen it in a store
I found a pretty purple penny
And it's prettier than any
Of the pennies I have ever seen before

It was round like a circle, it was flat, it was purple
It was small and it had a lovely shine
I could roll it and flip it, spin, toss or tip it
Lucky me, that pretty penny was mine

I've got a pretty purple penny
I don't think there can be many
'Cause I know I've never seen it in a store
I've got a pretty purple penny
And it's prettier than any
Of the pennies I have ever seen before

I can put it in my pocket, I can keep it in a locket
I could hide it my sock or in my shoe
If I hold it really tight and I wish with all my might
I bet the wish will soon come true

I love my pretty purple penny
I don't think there can be many
'Cause I know I've never seen it in a store
I've got a pretty purple penny
And it's prettier than any
Of the pennies I have ever seen before

Before I felt so yucky and now I feel so lucky
I wanna share this happiness with you
So, as you go along your way, I hope some day
You'll come across a lucky penny too

Just like my pretty purple penny
I don't think there can be many
'Cause I know I've never seen it in a store
I've got a pretty purple penny
And it's prettier than any
Of the pennies I have ever seen before
