Penny in My Back Pocket

There are few things
That frighten me more
Than my own shadow
It's my own choices
That put me in a bind each time

I never know where to go
Because right and wrong
Can stand right next to me
And look the same

If I don't find help, when I need it
If it don't come around
I gotta protect myself

I need a penny in my back pocket for good luck
A penny in my back pocket for good luck
Pray that they don't come take it from me
Pray that they don't come

I need a penny in my back pocket for good luck
A penny in my back pocket for good luck
Pray that they don't come take it from me
Pray that they don't come

How can I be upset with things
If I'm the one
If I'm the person that made them, yeah
How can I turn you away
And have the nerve to say
That I feel unwanted
Do I need clouds to break apart
And voices over my shoulder to say
"You're gonna give yourself a headache
If you didn't before"

If I ever fall
I wouldn't want to turn
And blame the ground, the ground

I need a penny in my back pocket for good luck
A penny in my back pocket for good luck
Pray that they don't come take it from me
Pray that they don't come

I need a penny in my back pocket for good luck
A penny in my back pocket for good luck
Pray that they don't come take it from me
Pray that they don't come

I need a penny in my back pocket for good luck
A penny in my back pocket for good luck
Pray that they don't come take it from me
Pray that they don't come

I need a penny in my back pocket for good luck
A penny in my back pocket for good luck
Pray that they don't come take it from me
Pray that they don't come
