Penny Lane (Bossa Version)

Penny Lane (Bossa Version) - Maria Augusta/Paul McCartney/John Lennon

Penny Lane there in a barber showing photographs

Of every head he's had the pleasure to know

And all the people that come and go

Stop and say "Hello"

On the corner is a banker with a motorcar

And little children laugh at him behind his back

And the banker never wears a mac

In the pouring rain very strange

Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes

There beneath the blue suburban skies

I sit and meanwhile back

In Penny Lane there is a fireman with an hourglass

And in his pocket is a portrait of the Queen

He likes to keep his fire engine clean

It's a clean machine

Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes

A four of fish and finger pies

In summer Meanwhile back

Behind the shelter in the middle of the roundabout

The pretty nurse is selling poppies from a tray

And though she feels as if she's in a play

She is anyway

In Penny Lane the barber shaves another customer

We see the banker sitting waiting for a trim

And then the fireman rushes in

From the pouring rain very strange

Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes

There beneath the blue suburban skies

I sit and meanwhile back

Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes

There beneath the blue suburban skies

I sit and meanwhile back

Penny Lane
