Bad Penny by Rory Gallagher

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

Like a bad (4)__________ you've sure lost the glow
But I'm out of reach, your smile's (5)________ (6)________ cold.
Well, it can't ever be like it was then,
Well, don't you (7)________ with me, baby,
Don't you mess with my plans.

Some stormy nights, (8)________ memory (9)____________ me,
You won't go away.

Well, like a bad penny you have (10)____________ up in the change,
Try to fit (11)________ the picture, you can't get inside the frame.
I (12)__________ you know I'm (13)__________ sore, but I'm on the mend,
Times (14)________ have changed, it won't happen again.

Well, like a bad penny spins around and around,
Well, you won't know what's (15)________ (16)__________ when it all falls down,
You got to learn from now on to (17)________ playing games,
You ought to keep on moving, you got to spin on (18)________ way.

Some (19)____________ nights, I hear you calling,
Won't you go away?

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