What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
I remember walkin' 'round the court square sidewalk
2
Lookin' in windows at things I couldn't want
3
There's Johnson's hardware and Morgan's jewelry
4
And the ol' Lee king's apothecary
5
They ware the little man
6
The little man
7
I go back now and the stores are all empty
8
Except for an old coke sign from 1950
9
Boarded up like they never existed
10
Or renovated and called historic districts
11
There goes the little man
12
There goes the little man
13
Now the court square's just a set of streets
14
That the people go round but they seldom think
15
Bout the little man that built this town
16
Before the big money shut em down
17
And killed the little man
18
Oh the little man
19
He pumped your gas and he cleaned your glass
20
And one cold rainy night he fixed your flat
21
The new stores came where you do it yourself
22
You buy a lotto ticket and food off the shelf
23
Forget the little man
24
Forget about that little man
25
He hung on there for a few more years
26
But he couldn't sell slurpees
27
And he wouldn't sell beer
28
Now the bank rents the station
29
To a down the road
30
And sell velvet Elvis and
31
Second-hand clothes
32
There goes little man
33
There goes another little man
34
Now the court square's just a set of streets
35
That the people go round but they seldom think
36
Bout the little man that built this town
37
Before the big money shut em down
38
And killed the little man
39
Oh the little man
40
Now the stores are lined up in a concrete strip
41
You can buy the world with just one trip
42
And save a penny 'cause it's jumbo size
43
They don't even realize
44
They're killin' the little man
45
Oh the little man
46
Now the court square's just a set of streets
47
That the people go round but they seldom think
48
Bout the little man that built this town
49
Before the big money shut em down
50
And killed the little man
51
Oh the little man
52
It wasn't long when I was a child
53
An old black man came with his mule and his plow
54
He broke the ground where we grew our garden
55
Back before we'd all forgot about the little man
56
The little man
57
Long live the little man
58
God bless the little man
