Текст песни ALAN JACKSON - Little Man
alan jacksonI remember walk'in round the court square sidewalkLookin' in windows at things i couldn't wantThere's johnson's hardware and morgans jewelryAnd the ol' lee king's apothecaryThey ware the little man( )The little manI go back now and the stores are all emptyExcept for an old coke sign from 1950Boarded up like they never existedOr renovated and called historic districtsThere goes the little manThere goes the little manChorus:Now the court square's just a set of streetsThat the people go round but they seldom thinkBout the little man that built this townBefore the big money shut em downAnd killed the little manOh the little manHe pumped your gas and he cleaned your glassAnd one cold rainy night he fixed your flatThe new stores came where you do it yourselfYou buy a lotto ticket and food off the shelfForget about the little manForget about that little manHe hung on there for a few more yearsBut he couldn't sell slurpeesAnd he wouldn't sell beerNow the bank rents the stationTo a down the roadAnd sell velvet elvis andSecond-hand clothesThere goes little manThere goes another little manNow the are lined up in a concrete stripYou can buy the world with just one tripAnd save a penny cause it's jumbo sizeThey don't even realizeThey'er killin' the little manOh the little manIt wasn't long when i was a childAn old black man came with his plowHe broke the ground where we grew our gardenBack before we'd all forgotAbout the little manThe little manLong live the little manGod bless the little man
