Sweet Penny

Sweet Penny
Why'd you have to go?
I guess the golden path was lit for you to walk down that road

Oh Janet
I miss that tender smile
And your words filled with class and your whiskey in a tall glass
All the while
Your soul still makes me sing
It's hard to believe it's been 15 years ago this spring
Feels like yesterday
Since I saw your Face
Oh yesterday

We can still see you up there
Frozen in your golden age
On those white sandy beaches
Bet you couldn't believe it when you strolled in

And that oceans so blue I know it's been treating you so well
Cause I can tell
From the whispers in the wind & the birds on my window sill

Sweet Penny
Why'd you have to
Why'd you have to go
Oh no no

They say I'm a lot like you
They say I laugh like you
Dance like you
And I don't give a damn like you
Oh and I can drink like you
Yeah I know how to throw them back like you
Put the boys in their places
Makes all of their faces turn bright red too

And that oceans so blue, I know it's been treating you so well
Cause I can tell
From the whispers in the wind & the birds on my window sill
Sweet Penny

And that oceans so blue, I know it's been treating you so well
I can tell
From the whispers in the wind and the birds on my window sill

Sweet penny
