I found a nickel on the ground
Shiny, spinning, round and round
It winked at me, a sly little sound
Said, "Toss me high, let luck abound."
I've got a pocketful of stardust
And a head full of schemes
Chasing the moon, oh, how it gleams
Pocketful of stardust, can't be denied
Dreams in my pocket, stars on my side
The lampposts hum a jazzy tune
The city sways beneath the moon
A rhythm runs through my old shoes
Every step's a beat, no time to lose
A clink, a clang, a melody’s pull
Life’s a cabaret when your heart is full
I've got a pocketful of stardust
And a head full of schemes
Chasing the moon, oh, how it gleams
Pocketful of stardust, can't be denied
Dreams in my pocket, stars on my side
What’s a man to do with cosmic dust?
Spin it, toss it, in life you must
Make your wishes, cast your dice
Who knew the stars could feel so nice
I've got a pocketful of stardust
And a head full of schemes
Chasing the moon, oh, how it gleams
Pocketful of stardust, can't be denied
Dreams in my pocket, stars on my side

A Pocketful of Stardust
Sam
This original song is a whimsical cabaret jazz journey through city nights and cosmic dreams. With playful lyrics and rhythmic imagery, it captures the feeling of chasing luck and wonder beneath moonlit skies. The nickel becomes a symbol of chance, and the stardust in the pocket represents hope, imagination, and the magic of possibility.
