I wrote this for a 'Karaoke' Contest. I was up against a hard rocker & a country singer, so I tried to blend the styles. I thought if I didn't win I was going to say that I loved what I was doing.

Countin’ pennies, countin’ dimes By Carolyn Stewart (2006) I needed to come here one more time To see what would happen, what would become of my life If I’m the last one standing here today, I feel there’s nothin’ that can get in my way I’ve got holes in my pocket, stains on my shirt I’m so tired of being broke it’s absurd And the pressures are risin’ with each cent of gasoline And the temperatures fallin’ if you know what I mean I’m countin’ pennies, I’m countin’ dimes I’ll get through this somehow, I can’t lie I’m scared of changes, I’m scared to fall I’m scared of losin’ when I’ve given you my all. My cars slowly dying, the tires are runnin’ bare Ain’t no signal working but really who cares As my taxes are risin’ my pay is going down What the hell are they thinkin’ this debt is driving me to the ground I’m Countin’ pennies, countin’ dimes I’ll get through this somehow, I can’t lie Scared of changes, scared to fall Scared of losin’ when I’ve given you my all. I’m just another name in a bucket for you I’ll fade away if you want me too I’ll be playin’ on corners ‘til my fingers go numb But I’m doin’ what I love, what I love Countin’ pennies, countin’ dimes I’ll get through this somehow, I can’t lie Scared of changes, scared to fall Scared of changes, scared to fall So scared of changes, scared to fall Scared of losin’ when I’ve given you my all. x
