She sat all alone on a bus out of Beaumont
  The courage of just 18 years
  A penny and quarter were taped to a letter
  And momma's goodbye in her ears
  
  She watched as her high school
  Faded behind her
  And the house with the white picket fence
  Then she read the note
  That her momma had wrote
  Wrapped up with 26¢
  
  When you get lonely, call me, anytime at all
  I'll be there with you, always, anywhere at all
  There's nothing I've got that I wouldn't give
  And money is never enough
  Here's a penny for your thoughts
  A quarter for the call
  And all of your momma's love
  
  A penny and a quarter
  Buys a whole lot of nothing
  Taped to an old wrinkled note
  And when she didn't have much
  She had all momma's love
  Inside that old envelope
  
  When you get lonely, call me, anytime at all
  I'll be there with you, always, anywhere at all
  There's nothing I've got that I wouldn't give
  And money is never enough
  Here's a penny for your thoughts
  A quarter for the call
  And all of your momma's love
  
  Oh its been years since momma's been gone
  But when she holds the coins she feels her love
  Just as strong
  
  When you get lonely, call me, anytime at all
  I'll be there with you, always, anywhere at all
  There's nothing I've got that I wouldn't give
  And money is never enough
  Here's a penny for your thoughts
  A quarter for the call
  And all of your momma's love
  
  Here's a penny for your thoughts
  A quarter for the call
  And all of your momma's love
