Penny Candy

Penny Candy - Jim Reeves (吉姆·裏夫斯)

There's a little girl lives on our street

She's awful sweet and pretty

The boys stand on their heads for her

But she thinks they're all silly

She's got freckles on her nose

Her hair is light and sandy

Penelope Candance is her name

But we call her Penny Candy

She doesn't know what a nickel is

She's got no use for dollars

There's always a penny in her hand

And a licorise on her collar

She's the sweetest girl in town

The little boys think she's a dandy

But the monkey shines don't bother her

When she's eatin' Penny Candy

Penny Candy she eats that messy kind

Penny Candy she eats it all the time

She brightens up the neighborhood

Her little face is always glowing

And when she's in a hurry

We all know where she's a going

It's to the little corner store

That's awful close and handy

Then once again her happy face is black with Penny Candy

Penny Candy she eats that messy kind

Penny Candy she eats it all the time

She's always got a smile for you

If you should ever meet her

And with Candy on her face

Her smile is a little sweeter

Penelope Candance is her name

And she likes that fine and dandy

But if you want to see her dimples show

Just call her Penny Candy

Penny Candy she eats that messy kind

Penny Candy she eats it all the time
