Bad Penny by Rory Gallagher

Well, like a bad (1)__________ you've (2)____________ up again,
You're in my sights, there's a mist on my lens.
I think you know how it was (3)________ I (4)______________ and fell,
Well, you double-dealed me, baby and I (5)__________ like a shell.

Like a bad penny you've sure lost the glow
But I'm out of reach, your smile's sure gone cold.
Well, it can't ever be like it was then,
Well, don't you (6)________ with me, baby,
Don't you mess (7)________ my plans.

Some stormy nights, (8)________ memory haunts me,
You won't go away.

Well, like a bad penny you (9)________ turned up in the change,
Try to fit into the picture, you can't get inside the frame.
I think you (10)________ I'm still sore, but I'm on the mend,
Times sure have changed, it won't (11)____________ again.

Well, like a bad (12)__________ (13)__________ around and around,
Well, you won't (14)________ what's gone wrong (15)________ it all (16)__________ down,
You got to (17)__________ (18)________ now on to stop playing games,
You ought to keep on moving, you got to spin on your way.

Some lonely nights, I (19)________ you calling,
Won't you go away?

Well, like a bad penny you have turned up again,
You're in my sights, there's a mist on my lens.
I (20)__________ you know how it was when I tripped and fell,
Well, you double-dealed me, baby, I cracked (21)________ a shell.
