Lyrics

[Verse 1] I broke into the bank on Sunday And you should see the money I got I couldn't drag it home until Monday 'Cause it sure weighed an awful lot Then I sat down to count it And much to my surprise A whole lotta little round little brown coins Rolled out in front of my eyes [Chorus] I got a hundred thousand dollars in pennies Not one paper dollar or dime And I really don't think there's many Rich men with a problem like mine And I really don't think this is any Kind of ending for a perfect crime I got a hundred thousand dollars in pennies And I'm spending it a penny at a time [Verse 2] Now a steak would sure taste delicious And I've forgotten how beer would feel But the man might get suspicious If I gave him five hundred pennies for a meal So I guess I'll weigh myself again And buy another stick of gum I got a hundred thousand dollars in pennies And I'm a living like a penniless bum [Chorus] I've got a hundred thousand dollars in pennies Not one paper dollar or dime And I really don't think there's many Rich men with a problem like mine And I really don't think this is any Kind of ending for a perfect crime I got a hundred thousand dollars in pennies And I'm spending it a penny at a time [Verse 3] I could buy myself a big limousine And be a living like a movie star But I'd have to hire a truck to haul the pennies To the place where you buy the car And I'd have to have a wagon To haul the pennies to the place I'd hire the truck I got a hundred thousand dollars in pennies And I ain't got a penny's worth of luck [Chorus] I've got a hundred thousand dollars in pennies Not one paper dollar or dime And I really don't think there's many Rich men with a problem like mine And I really don't think this is any Kind of ending for a perfect crime I got a hundred thousand dollars in pennies, Lord And I'm spending it a penny at a time I got a hundred thousand dollars in pennies And I'm spending it a penny at a time
