That Little Penny In The Parking Lot Remember this every time you pass that little penny in the parking lot. I always thought that it was for good luck, but I love this version better.
I found a penny today Laying on the ground. But it's not just a penny, This little coin I've found.
Found pennies come from heaven, that's what my Grandpa told me. He said Angels toss them down. Oh, how I loved that story.
He said when an Angel misses you, They toss a penny down; Sometimes just to cheer you up, To make a smile out of your frown.
So, don't pass by that penny When you're feeling blue. It may be a penny from heaven That an Angel's tossed to you.
So now pass this on to people you care about And who you feel are Angels to you. I just did. An Angel is now watching over you. Have A Great Day
