Thereâs a little girl lives on our street sheâs awful sweet and pretty
The boys stand on their heads for her but she thinks their all silly
Sheâs got freckles on her nose and her hair is light and sandy
Pentalope Candance is her name but we all call her Penny Candy
She doesnât know what a nickel is sheâs got no use for dollars
Thereâs always a penny in her hand and licorice on her collar
Sheâs the sweetest girl in town the little boys all thinks sheâs a dandy
But their monkeyshines donât bother her while sheâs eating penny candy
Penny candy, she eats that messy kind
Penny candy, she eats it all the time
She brightens up the neighborhood her little face is always glowing
And when sheâs in a hurry, we all know where sheâs a-going
Itâs to the little corner store thatâs awful close and handy
And once again her happy face in black with penny candy
Penny candy, she eats that messy kind
Penny candy, she eats it all the time
Sheâs always got a smile for you if you should ever meet her
And with candy on her face her smile is a little sweeter
Pentalope Candance is her name and she likes that fine and dandy
But if you want to see her dimples show just call her Penny Candy
Penny candy, she eats that messy kind
Penny candy, she eats it all the time
