there was an old blind man

who stood on the corner down town

he was holding a cup

filled up with nothing

from the christmas shopping crowd

and though I barely came up

to the top of his cane

I reached up and gave him

every cent to my name

three little pennies

were all that I had

one that i'd found

two from my dad

three little pennies not much of a gift

but Dad said

that's plenty if it's all you can give

that evening my dad

told a wonderful story to me

about a child and the manger

the wise men who came bearing gifts

on the first christmas eve

there was a part i'm sure he made up

about a stable boy who couldn't give much

three little pennies

were all that he had

one that he'd found

two from his dad

three little pennies not much of a gift

but Dad said

that's plenty if it's all you can give

next morning was christmas

and I had prayed hard for a bike

but all that I found was the tiniest box

with three shiny pennies inside

and I was so disappointed

because I had been good

but times had been bad so I understood

and daddy said

three little pennies

were all that you had

but you gave them freely

so I gave them back

three little pennies not much of a gift

you're bike is outside

because you've learned how to give
