PENNIES ON THE TRACK

                                                     PENNIES ON THE TRACK        
                                        
                                             We've traveled down, oh many times
                                             To the railroad tracks
                                             And laid our pennies there
                                             Just Pop and me

                                             We've heard the mournful whistle howl
                                             As the train creaked clackily
                                             Down the rails
                                             And flattened out our pennies
                                             Into memories
long ago


                                            And now our children have experienced 
                                            This same sweet joy and excitement
                                            Of boxcars passing o'er 
                                            And bending slow
                                            And moving on 
                                            Into eternity
