Bad Penny by Rory Gallagher

Well, like a bad penny 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 tripped and fell,
Well, you double-dealed me, baby and I broke like a shell.

Like a bad penny you've sure lost the glow
But I'm out of reach, your smile's sure (1)________ cold.
Well, it can't ever be like it was then,
Well, don't you (2)________ with me, baby,
Don't you mess with my plans.

Some stormy nights, (3)________ memory (4)____________ me,
You won't go away.

Well, like a bad penny you (5)________ turned up in the change,
Try to fit (6)________ the picture, you can't get inside the frame.
I think you (7)________ I'm (8)__________ sore, but I'm on the mend,
Times sure have changed, it won't (9)____________ again.

Well, like a bad penny spins around and around,
Well, you won't know what's gone wrong when it all falls down,
You got to learn from now on to stop playing games,
You ought to keep on moving, you got to spin on your way.

Some lonely nights, I hear you calling,
Won't you go away?

Well, like a bad penny you have turned up again,
You're in my sights, there's a mist on my lens.
I think you (10)________ how it was when I tripped and fell,
Well, you double-dealed me, baby, I cracked like a shell.
