Tenpenny Bit
I have a memento from the first job I ever did
In my line of work the first pocket that I picked
A hands in hands out, hand-me-down
A token king, a sovereign crown
The only lord to which I bow
A tenpenny bit
Tenpenny bit
A tenpenny bit
Decided with a flip
Of the ol' tenpenny bit
And if it's heads up boys
I'm going over the wall
And if she's tails
Another day of toil
I was working the crowds
At Regency Park
A hands in, hands out, hands up
And hands behind my back
They threw me in the monkey house
Between iron bar and brick

Threw me in the courthouse
And then threw me on a ship
And I could've bought favours
Drowned my thirst with wine
I could've feasted on salted pork
And chewed upon the rind
Instead I hid my treasure well
Through six long months of living hell
At least I left the ship
With my tenpenny bit
I'll send good King George up
To look over the wall
And then he'll let me know
If the traps are on patrol
It's over the wall across the hills
To China by a whale ship
To live like a prince
With my tenpenny bit
