[00:00.86] | Little Man |
[00:03.75] | Alan Jackson |
[00:06.73] | |
[00:09.59] | I remember walk′in round the court square sidewalk |
[00:13.90] | Lookin′ in windows at things I couldn′t want |
[00:18.22] | There′s johnson′s hardware and morgans jewelry |
[00:21.98] | And the ol′ Lee king′s apothecary |
[00:25.75] | They ware the little man |
[00:29.76] | The little man |
[00:34.51] | I go back now and the stores are all empty |
[00:38.20] | Except for an old coke sign from 1950 |
[00:42.70] | Boarded up like they never existed |
[00:46.74] | Or renovated and called historic districts |
[00:50.44] | There goes the little man |
[00:53.19] | There goes the little man |
[00:57.75] | Now the court square′s just a set of streets |
[01:01.89] | That the people go round but they seldom think |
[01:05.51] | Bout the little man that built this town |
[01:09.87] | Before the big money shut em down |
[01:13.82] | And killed the little man |
[01:17.79] | Oh the little man |
[01:22.42] | He pumped your gas and he cleaned your glass |
[01:26.02] | And one cold rainy night he fixed your flat |
[01:30.12] | The new stores came where you do it yourself |
[01:33.63] | You buy a lotto ticket and food off the shelf |
[01:37.55] | Forget about the little man |
[01:41.01] | Forget about that little man |
[01:46.57] | He hung on there for a few more years |
[01:50.19] | But he couldn′t sell slurpees |
[01:52.51] | And he wouldn′t sell beer |
[01:54.22] | Now the bank rents the station |
[01:57.23] | To a down the road |
[01:58.34] | And sell velvet Elvis and |
[02:00.38] | Second-hand clothes |
[02:02.00] | There goes little man |
[02:04.92] | There goes another little man |
[02:09.82] | Now the court square′s just a set of streets |
[02:14.03] | That the people go round but they seldom think |
[02:17.79] | Bout the little man that built this town |
[02:22.02] | Before the big money shut em down |
[02:25.73] | And killed the little man |
[02:30.03] | Oh the little man |
[02:54.70] | Now the are lined up in a concrete strip |
[02:58.04] | You can buy the world with just one trip |
[03:02.63] | And save a penny cause it′s jumbo size |
[03:06.46] | They don′t even realize |
[03:10.15] | They′er killin′ the little man |
[03:14.07] | Oh the little man |
[03:17.88] | Now the court square′s just a set of streets |
[03:22.13] | That the people go round but they seldom think |
[03:25.92] | Bout the little man that built this town |
[03:30.08] | Before the big money shut em down |
[03:33.93] | And killed the little man |
[03:38.10] | Oh the little man |
[03:42.75] | It wasn′t long when I was a child |
[03:46.47] | An old black man came with his plow |
[03:50.79] | He broke the ground where we grew our garden |
[03:54.65] | Back before we′d all forgot |
[04:00.24] | about the little man |
[04:04.26] | The little man |
[04:07.56] | Long live the little man |
[04:12.45] | God bless the little man |
[04:17.69] |
