Dockwalliper Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 Three coins in the fountain Each one seeking happiness (Thrown by three hopeful lovers) (Which one will the fountain bless?) Three hearts in the fountain Each heart longing for its home (There they lie in the fountain) (Somewhere in the heart of Rome) Which one will the fountain bless? Which one will the fountain bless? Three coins in the fountain Through the ripples how they shine (Just one wish will be granted) (One heart will wear a valentine) Make it mine! Make it mine! Make it mine!

Dockwalliper Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 Every time it rains it rains Pennies from heaven. Don't you know each cloud contains Pennies from heaven. You'll find yor fortune falling All over town. Be sure that your umbrella is upside down. Trade them for a package of sunshine and flowers. If you want the things you love You must have showers. So when you hear it thunder Don't run under a tree. There'll be pennies from heaven for you and me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marianne Posted September 24, 2007 Report Share Posted September 24, 2007 I got a spring in my footstep - hot dog, I'm looking all right! I got a burning feeling Way down in my pocket tonight Shakin' in my pants like thunder Don't they just sparkle and shine Traveling everywhere I go cause I love, love love Nickels & dimes. Some, they like folded money Clipped tight like their fat neckties Quarters they can take to the laundry But I think they're just a bit outsized Oooh, I gotta stick my hand down I gotta touch them from time to time Coolest little things I know, and I love, love, love nickels and dimes. Shiny as a red-hot coal Smooth as a riverbed stone My gal, she clutches a roll Until I get her back home Then she gives me five-cent kisses Mmmm, and I like that kind I can get a whole lot more Cause I love, love love Nickels and dimes.

De Orc Posted September 24, 2007 Report Share Posted September 24, 2007 From Mary Poppins Early each day to the steps of Saint Paul's The little old bird woman comes. In her own special way to the people she calls, "Come, buy my bags full of crumbs. Come feed the little birds, show them you care And you'll be glad if you do. Their young ones are hungry, Their nests are so bare; All it takes is tuppence from you." Feed the birds, tuppence a bag, Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag. "Feed the birds," that's what she cries, While overhead, her birds fill the skies. All around the cathedral the saints and apostles Look down as she sells her wares. Although you can't see it, you know they are smiling Each time someone shows that he cares. Though her words are simple and few, Listen, listen, she's calling to you: "Feed the birds, tuppence a bag, Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag."

De Orc Posted September 24, 2007 Report Share Posted September 24, 2007 children's nursery rhyme Sing a song of sixpence a pocket full of rye, Four and twenty blackbirds baked in a pie. When the pie was opened the birds began to sing, Oh wasn't that a dainty dish to set before the king? The king was in his counting house counting out his money, The queen was in the parlour eating bread and honey The maid was in the garden hanging out the clothes, When down came a blackbird and pecked off her nose!
