Discover the story of the song > Pennies From Heaven – Bing Crosby

The lyrics describe how in the past, people didn't appreciate the free things in life like the blue sky and the new moon. It was decided that sometimes these things would disappear and people would have to pay to get them back. When it rains, it's like pennies are falling from the sky and bringing good fortune. So, don't be afraid of the rain and use your umbrella to collect the pennies, because you can trade them for the things you love.
