I remeCmber walking round the court sqGuare sidewalks
FLooking in windows at things I couldn't want
CThere's Johnson's Hardware and MoGrton's Jewelry
And the OFld E King and the pots they carried
They're the liCttle man F The liCttle man
CI go back now the stGores are empty
F'Cept an old coke sign dated 1950
CBoarded up like they neGver existed
FRenovated and called historic district
There goes the litCtle man F There goes the liCttle man
Now the coA#murt squares's just a sFet of streets
CPeople go round but they selGdom think
About the liA#mttle man that buFilt this town
CBefore the big money sGhut 'em down
And killed the liCttle man F offed the little mCan
CHe pumped your gas and he'd cGlean your glass
FOne cold rainy night he fixed your flat
CA new store came where you Gdo it yourself
You bFuy a lotto ticket and food off the shelf
Forget the liCttle man F forget about the liCttle man
CHe hung on there for a fGew more years
FHe couldn't sell slurpees and he wouldn't sell beer
CNow the bank rents the station to a mGan down the road
And they sell veFlvet Elvises and second hand clothes
There goes the liCttle man F There goes another liCttle man
Go to Chorus, lead
CNow the stores are lined up in a coGncrete strip
FYou can buy the whole world in just one trip
CSave a penny cause it's juGmbo size
FThey don't even realize
They're killing the liCttle man F Offed the liCttle man
Go to Chorus,
CIt wasn't long ago when GI was a child
FAn old black man came with his mule and plow
He brCoke the ground where we gGrew our garden
FBack before we'd all forgotten
About the liCttle man F The litCtle man, F
Long live the litCtle man, F God bless the little man C
