[Verse 1]
I remember the night when I caught your eye
Nothing but good fortune
Nothing but good times
Seems lately even love has lost its shine
Used to make me feel like a million bucks
And now you got me feeling like

[Chorus]
Loose change
I ain't worth a thing to you
Loose change
You don't see my value
I'm gonna be somebody's lucky penny someday
Instead of rollin' 'round in your pocket like loose change

[Verse 2]
Right now I could be finally settin' sail
See the Seven Wonders
Wonderin' why the hell
I keep on setting myself up to fail
Stuck inside this game with you
Flippin' heads or tails

[Chorus]
Loose change
I ain't worth a thing to you
Loose change
You don't see my value
I'm gonna be somebody's lucky penny someday
Instead of rollin' 'round in your pocket like loose change

[Bridge]
Well, love is not supposed to be
Played like Monopoly
Be careful where you're tossing me
'Cause I'll be rolling away

[Chorus]
Like loose change
I ain't worth a thing to you
Loose change
You don't see my value
I'm gonna be somebody's lucky penny someday
Instead of rollin' 'round in your pocket like loose change

[Outro]
I'm fallin' out of your pocket like loose change

The Highwomen are a country supergroup formed by Brandi Carlile, Natalie Hemby, Maren Morris, and Amanda Shires in 2019. The name of the project is a reference to the collaboration of Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson, and Willie Nelson called The Highwaymen, which was established in 1985.

Shires first came up with the idea for the group in 2016 as a response to how few women were being played on country radio. With help from producer Dave Cobb, she soon recruited Carlile and eventually rounded out the lineup with the additions of Morris and Hemby. The four first performed together at a celebration of country legend Loretta Lynn. Their first single, “Redesigning Women”, was released in July 2019. Their self-titled album was released on September 6, 2019.

The group considers the project a movement, not just a band. Carlile says, ”anyone can be a Highwoman. It’s about banding together, abandoning as much ego as humanly possible, holding one another up and amplifying other women every chance we get. Shoulder to shoulder. One push, one love."
