Verse 1
G
This is our street.
We did a lot of growing up
right here.
I've been kissed, kicked,
cussed and cuddled all in this one block.
I've laughed, cried,
ran and chased
D
G
up and down this sidewalk.
See that yard over there?
I had my arm and my heart broken there.
The arm was about ten
years before the heart
and didn't hurt near as much.
I remember the heart so much better.
F
G
Now that's where Nancy Clemmer
A
lived.
F
D
Nancy and I had been in love
since we were three years old.
G
Had grown up together.
And the winter we turned 16
when it came time for the high school Christmas
C
dance boy.
I got excited I went out
rented a tuxedo
G
F
bought a boutonniere a corsage
G
Asked daddy for the car
had it washed at all shine
C
that boy look good
F
I remember to do everything
except one thing do you believe
I forgot to ask Nancy?
G
So there I stood on her front yard that night
and she went to the dance
with Eddie Franklin of all people
C
And oh, by the way,
G
ten years before that,
D
it was Nancy who broke my arm
playing football
F
in that very same yard.
Now, Nancy and I go back a long way.
G
We walk to school...
A
Every evening after school,
G
D
along about the fourth or fifth grade,
A
we would all gather
over in Jennifer's yard.
G
The girls doing cartwheels
and giggling,
the boys doing tricks on our bikes
and showing off.
And we'd always get our heads
together, though,
Em
and make big plans for special occasions.
G
It was nearing Halloween,
and we told each other
how we were going to dress
C
and what we were going to be
G
and decided we'd all go trick -or -treating
F
together.
G
So about half a dozen of us took off
Halloween night
with our bags and costumes
D
down the street.
G
And my dog, King,
who was used to going everywhere I went,
fell right in to go too.
But I didn't want him tagging
along at night,
and I had to scold him pretty hard
C
and almost drag him back to the backyard
and close the gate on him.
G
We hadn't gone ten houses
F
down the street
G
when old Blackie,
A
F
this enormous old German shepherd
G
that we were all scared to death of,
was for some reason loose on
Halloween night.
A
He came out from between two houses
G
heading straight toward
us.
C
Everybody screamed
and took off running,
F
except me,
G
and I was so scared I froze.
C
I never did see King,
F
A
F
but I felt him come in behind me,
and he grabbed
the old German shepherd
A
just before the old German shepherd
G
grabbed me
and they went round and round
and you couldn't
Bb
G
see anything but fur flying
C
an d I couldn't see
the fur for the tears.
G
Old Blackie ran home yelping
and I grabbed King and hugged him
F
G
and we went home and both of us
sat on the front porch
C
and watched the trick -or
G
-treaters come and go
C
till mama turned the porch light off
F
and said it was time to go to bed.
G
It was the best Halloween I
D
ever had.
I wouldn't trade it for all
the candy
G
Two houses down from the corner,
that's where Betty Lee
Miller lived.
A
And when I'd take her home at night,
if we sat in the car for 30 seconds,
her mama would start
D
blinking the porch light.
So we'd always walk up on the porch
and the light was on
G
and glaring right in our faces.
There was no way I could ever kiss
F
Betty goodnight
G
without the whole neigh
borhood watching.
So one night, I just reached up
and twisted the light
bulb till it went out.
A
We laughed, kissed,
and then I went home.
The next day Betty's mother
came out,
D
checked the switch,
and changed the light bulb.
A few nights later,
G
the same thing happened.
Em
G
And the next day her mother said,
Em
G
D
I don't know what could be hap
A
pening with these light bulbs,
Am
A
and she put a new one in .
And this happened about five or six times,
D
and of course Betty wasn't
A
about to tell her what was going on,
D
G
and I certainly wasn't. And then I went
C
to pick Betty Lee up one evening,
G
D
and her daddy was on the front porch
G
with a ladder and a tool belt
and he was putting in a brand
new light fixture.
A
I decided then it was time
to either quit turning the light off
or quit turning Betty on.
D
Unfortunately I did both.
The next fall she got engaged
G
and moved to New York State.
The sights and sounds of this street
will always haunt me.
In the wintertime
everyone would be out
Eb
shoveling snow off the sidewalk.
A
In the fall, they'd be
raking leaves.
D
And in the spring and summer,
mowing the grass or washing the cars.
The kids would walk to school together and at three,
G
Em
G
the quiet would be torn apart
D
and the street would come alive again
with children's voices and
G
laughter.
Daddies would come home at five
Eb
G
and warm lights were in every kitchen
A
window.
It was a time when people would walk or ride by and wave and
D
you'd speak whether you knew them or not.
A time when people really
did go next door
G
and borrow a cup of sugar.
A time when sitting
on the front porch
B
was a special time of the evening,
G
boy, people back then
Em
could really sit on the front porch.
G
F
Mo m and Daddy in the glider
and my sister in the swing
G
A
Am
and me on the front steps.
A
D
And on just about any summer evening,
you could hear Shirley Jean Burrell
and Charlotte Thompson
G
across the street singing.
and they would be in
D
the swing
on Charlotte's front porch.
G
Em
G
You could hear that old swing creaking
and I guess they only knew
the harmony to one song,
A
D
A
but they sang that one every evening.
D
We'd get quiet and listen.
That old swing would creak
Eb
and Shirley Jean and Char
G
lotte were singing.
God, if only I could be little again.
