Pennies (or "A secret love song for The Underground")

Me and my guitar are crossing the border
Gonna meet up with a couple of friends down by the river
First time out of the States to play my own songs
For people that I've never met
With hours to go is it too early to be nervous?

If I'm a name on a flyer in a rundown venue
I wouldn't have it any other way
If I'm the pennies spent to get you into the show
I hope you get to hear your favorite band play
When the music's over and it's time to go home
I just wanna hear you say
This night was worth it!

Me and my guitar are moving on
After a wonderful guerrilla show on the Saskatchewan
I leave this city broke but full of memories
Of people I won't soon forget
With hours to go before our next stop in Alberta

If I'm a name on a flyer in a rundown venue
I wouldn't have it any other way
If I'm the pennies spent to get you into the show
I hope you get to hear your favorite band play
When the music's over and it's time to go home
I just wanna hear you say
This night was worth it!

Me and my guitar are homeward bound
Gonna meet up with a bunch of kids at The Underground
Canada was great but now I get to play
For all of my inspiring friends
With hours to go is it weird to be this excited?

If I'm a name on a flyer in a rundown venue
I wouldn't have it any other way
If I'm the pennies spent to get you into the show
I hope you get to hear your favorite band play
When the music's over and it's time to go home
I just wanna hear you say
This night was worth it!
