I broke into the bank on Sunday,

You should see the money I got.

I couldn't drag it home 'til Monday,

'Cause it sure weighed an awful lot.



Then I sat down to count it,

And much to my surprise,

A whole lotta little brown, little round coins,

Rolled out before my eyes



Chorus:

I've got a hundred thousand dollars worth of pennies,

Not a solitary dollar or a dime,

And I don't believe there's many,

Rich men with a problem like mine.



And I don't think this is any

Kind of ending to a perfect crime.

I've got a hundred thousand dollars worth of pennies,

And I'm spendin' it a penny at a time!



Now a steak sure would taste delicious,

And I've forgot how a beer would feel,

But the man just might get suspicious,

If I gave him eight hundred pennies for a meal.



So I guess I'll just weigh myself again,

And buy me another stick of gum,

I've got a hundred thousand dollars worth of pennies, Lord!

And I'm livin' like a penniless bum!



Chorus:

I've got a hundred thousand dollars worth of pennies,

Not a solitary dollar or a dime,

And I don't believe there's many,

Rich men with a problem like mine.
