Z717Wg Mam
I remember walkin' round
The court square sidewalks
Lookin' in windows
at things I couldn't want
There's Johnson's Hardware
And Morgan's Jewelry

And the old
Lee King's Apothecary
They were the little man
The little man
I go back now
The stores are empty

Except an old Coke sign
dated 1950
There goes the little man
There goes the little man
Now the court square's
just a set of streets

That people go 'round
But they seldom think
'Bout the little man
that built this town

Before the big money
shut 'em down
And killed the little man
Oh the little man
He pumped your gas
And he'd clean your glass

One cold rainy night
He fixed your flat
And food off the shelf

Forget the little man
Forget about that little man
Yeah he hung on there
for a few more years

He couldn't sell Slurpees
And he wouldn't sell beer
And they sell velvet Elvis

And second hand clothes
There goes the little man
Now the court square's
just a set of streets

That people go 'round
But they seldom think
'Bout the little man
that built this town

Before the big money
shut 'em down
And killed the little man
Oh the little man
Now the stores

are lined up
in a concrete strip
And save a penny 'cause

it's jumbo size
And they don't even realize
They're killin' the little man
Oh the little man
Now the court square's
just a set of streets

That people go 'round
but they seldom think
'Bout the little man
that built this town

Before the big money
shut 'em down
And killed the little man
Oh the little man
It wasn't long ago
When I was a child
He broke the ground
Where we grew our garden

Back before
we'd all forgotten
About the little man
The little man

Long live the little man
God bless the little man
