Little Man (小伙计) - Hit Crew Masters[00:00:00]
I remember walk'in round the court square sidewalk[00:00:10]
Lookin' in windows at things I couldn't want[00:00:14]
There's johnson's hardware and morgans jewelry[00:00:18]
And the ol' Lee king's apothecary[00:00:22]
They ware the little man[00:00:26]
The little man[00:00:30]
I go back now and the stores are all empty[00:00:35]
Except for an old coke sign from 1950[00:00:38]
Boarded up like they never existed[00:00:43]
Or renovated and called historic districts[00:00:47]
There goes the little man[00:00:51]
There goes the little man[00:00:54]
Now the court square's just a set of streets[00:00:58]
That the people go round but they seldom think[00:01:02]
Bout the little man that built this town[00:01:06]
Before the big money shut em down[00:01:10]
And killed the little man[00:01:15]
Oh the little man[00:01:18]
He pumped your gas and he cleaned your glass[00:01:23]
And one cold rainy night he fixed your flat[00:01:26]
The new stores came where you do it yourself[00:01:31]
You buy a lotto ticket and food off the shelf[00:01:34]
Forget about the little man[00:01:39]
Forget about that little man[00:01:42]
He hung on there for a few more years[00:01:47]
But he couldn't sell slurpees[00:01:51]
And he wouldn't sell beer[00:01:53]
Now the bank rents the station[00:01:54]
To a down the road[00:01:56]
And sell velvet Elvis and[00:01:58]
Second-hand clothes[00:02:01]
There goes little man[00:02:01]
There goes another little man[00:02:06]
The court square's just a set of streets[00:02:11]
That the people go round but they seldom think[00:02:15]
Bout the little man that built this town[00:02:19]
Before the big money shut em down[00:02:23]
And killed the little man[00:02:27]
Oh the little man[00:02:30]
Now the are lined up in a concrete strip[00:02:55]
You can buy the world with just one trip[00:02:59]
And save a penny cause it's jumbo size[00:03:04]
They don't even realize[00:03:07]
They'er killin' the little man[00:03:10]
Oh the little man[00:03:15]
Now the court square's just a set of streets[00:03:19]
That the people go round but they seldom think[00:03:24]
Bout the little man that built this town[00:03:28]
Before the big money shut em down[00:03:31]
And killed the little man[00:03:36]
Oh the little man[00:03:39]
It wasn't long when I was a child[00:03:44]
An old black man came with his plow[00:03:47]
He broke the ground where we grew our garden[00:03:52]
Back before we'd all forgot about the little man[00:03:56]
The little man[00:04:05]
Long live the little man[00:04:09]
God bless the little man[00:04:13]
