26 Cents lyrics

She sat all alone on a bus out of Beaumont
The courage of just eighteen years
A penny and quarter taped to a letter
And mamma`s goodbye in her ears


She watched as her high-school faded behind her
And the house with the white picket fence
Then she read the note that her mamma had wrote
Wrapped up with twenty-six cents


CHORUS:
When you get lonely, call me, anytime at all
I`ll be there with you, always, anywhere at all
There`s nothing I got that I wouldn`t give
And money is never enough
Here`s a penny for your thoughts, a quarter for the call
And all o` your mamma`s love


A penny and quarter buys a whole lotta nothing
Taped to an old wrinkled note
But when she didn`t have much, she had all mamma`s love
Inside that old envelope


REPEAT CHORUS


Oh it`s been years since mamma`s been gone
But when she hold the coins she feels her love
Just as strong...


REPEAT CHORUS


Here`s a penny for your thoughts, a quarter for the call
And all o` your mamma`s love
