Penny Pincher

(Verse 1)
Woke up this mornin’, checkin’ the bank,
My wallet’s lookin’ thin, and it’s drivin’ me blank.
I’m countin’ my pennies, I’m countin’ my dimes,
I swear I’m workin’ overtime just to make ‘em climb.

Gotta save every nickel, gotta save every cent,
I’m stretchin’ my dollars like they’re heaven-sent.
Ain’t no room for splurgin’ or playin’ it free,
I’m a penny pincher, baby, that’s the life for me.

(Chorus)
I’m a penny pincher, keepin’ my change close,
Watchin’ every dollar like it’s the most.
Gotta cut those corners, live a little tight,
But I’m holdin’ on to what’s mine tonight.
No room for indulgence, no room for flair,
I’m a penny pincher, baby, but I don’t care.

(Verse 2)
I’m buyin’ my coffee, but I’m makin’ it last,
Ain’t no fancy lattes, just a brew that’s fast.
I’m huntin’ for deals in every little store,
If it ain’t on sale, well, I’ll walk out the door.

I’ll take that hand-me-down jacket, wear it with pride,
No need for designer when I’m livin’ this side.
Coupons in my pocket, and my car’s almost out of gas,
But I’ll make it to the next stop, yeah, I’ll make it last.

(Bridge)
I got a jar full of coins, but that’s my gold,
It’s the simple things in life that make me bold.
You can keep your riches, I’ll keep my ways,
I’ll live day by day, countin’ up my praise.

(Outro)
So I’ll keep on savin’, keep on dreamin’ too,
‘Cause every little penny’s gonna see me through.
Yeah, I’m a penny pincher, and I’m feelin’ just right,
Watchin’ my dollars dance through the night.
