Little Man[00:00:00]

Alan Jackson[00:00:03]

I remember walk′in round the court square sidewalk[00:00:09]

Lookin′ in windows at things I couldn′t want[00:00:13]

There′s johnson′s hardware and morgans jewelry[00:00:18]

And the ol′ Lee king′s apothecary[00:00:21]

They ware the little man[00:00:25]

The little man[00:00:29]

I go back now and the stores are all empty[00:00:34]

Except for an old coke sign from 1950[00:00:38]

Boarded up like they never existed[00:00:42]

Or renovated and called historic districts[00:00:46]

There goes the little man[00:00:50]

There goes the little man[00:00:53]

Now the court square′s just a set of streets[00:00:57]

That the people go round but they seldom think[00:01:01]

Bout the little man that built this town[00:01:05]

Before the big money shut em down[00:01:09]

And killed the little man[00:01:13]

Oh the little man[00:01:17]

He pumped your gas and he cleaned your glass[00:01:22]

And one cold rainy night he fixed your flat[00:01:26]

The new stores came where you do it yourself[00:01:30]

You buy a lotto ticket and food off the shelf[00:01:33]

Forget about the little man[00:01:37]

Forget about that little man[00:01:41]

He hung on there for a few more years[00:01:46]

But he couldn′t sell slurpees[00:01:50]

And he wouldn′t sell beer[00:01:52]

Now the bank rents the station[00:01:54]

To a down the road[00:01:57]

And sell velvet Elvis and[00:01:58]

Second-hand clothes[00:02:00]

There goes little man[00:02:02]

There goes another little man[00:02:04]

Now the court square′s just a set of streets[00:02:09]

That the people go round but they seldom think[00:02:14]

Bout the little man that built this town[00:02:17]

Before the big money shut em down[00:02:22]

And killed the little man[00:02:25]

Oh the little man[00:02:30]

Now the are lined up in a concrete strip[00:02:54]

You can buy the world with just one trip[00:02:58]

And save a penny cause it′s jumbo size[00:03:02]

They don′t even realize[00:03:06]

They′er killin′ the little man[00:03:10]

Oh the little man[00:03:14]

Now the court square′s just a set of streets[00:03:17]

That the people go round but they seldom think[00:03:22]

Bout the little man that built this town[00:03:25]

Before the big money shut em down[00:03:30]

And killed the little man[00:03:33]

Oh the little man[00:03:38]

It wasn′t long when I was a child[00:03:42]

An old black man came with his plow[00:03:46]

He broke the ground where we grew our garden[00:03:50]

Back before we′d all forgot[00:03:54]

About the little man[00:04:00]

The little man[00:04:04]

Long live the little man[00:04:07]

God bless the little man[00:04:12]
