A pocket full of change
Some of it pennies

Takes more to make a dime
A couple of nickels will do it

Someone once said
I “jingled” when I walked
  
Just a pocket full of change
Keeps a game of pool profitable

Wears a hole after awhile
Was that her fingers I felt?

Nah…just a pocket full of change
I can take a cue

...You can bank on it

She told me "play one for your supper Danny and maybe you'll get breakfast".

Yeah, you're tight, Ticklefingers, making bank on the certainty those were sweet delectable fingers groping around in your pocket, not for the change you had there, no indeed, but the family jewels close by . . .

You two crack me up! Get you together and you are like something out of high school!  And I bet you both just took that as a compliment. ~L

Actually, no Miss Lori I did NOT feel complimented! You've got some nerve coming around here nagging us like you're our 'den mother' or sumpin! Why I oughta haul off and...well,...um...

Say Southern Lou, why don't you finish this for me? C'mon, after all isn't that what big brothers are for (...and you are old enough to be my big brother!)?

By the way Miss Lori, howz about me picking you up and hauling you off to the prom dance? You can wear that cute poodle-skirt with your initials on it! We'll trip the light fantastic! But first, do you know how to fix a flat?

Oh Tf,
How cute, they are doing a Fifty's theme for the prom. I about missed the fifties. I was 3 in 1960. ~L

I like the "whatever she maybe" lumped in there . . . Yeah . . . whatever she maybe doesn't cheat on pouring shots . . . Speaking of which, are you still on the wagon since the last time? Heh.Heh
