lirik lagu little man – alan jackson
i remember walk’in round the court square sidewalk
lookin’ in windows at things i couldn’t want
there’s johnson’s hardware and morgans jewelry
and the ol’ lee king’s apothecary
they ware the little man
the little man
i go back now and the stores are empty
except for an old c-ke sign dated 1950
boarded up like they never existed
or renovated and called historic districts
there goes the little man
there goes the little man
now the court square’s just a set of streets
that the people go round but they seldom think
bout the little man that built this town
before the big money shut em down
and killed the little man
oh the little man
he pumped your gas and he cleaned your gl-ss
and one cold rainy night he fixed your flat
the new stores came where you do it yourself
you buy a lotto ticket and food off the shelf
forget the little man
forget about that little man
he hung on there for a few more years
but he couldn’t sell slurpees
and he wouldn’t sell beer
now the bank rents the station
to a man down the road
and they sell velvet elvis and
second-hand clothes
there goes little man
there goes another little man
now the court square’s just a set of streets
that the people go round but they seldom think
bout the little man that built this town
before the big money shut em down
and killed the little man
oh the little man
now the stores are lined up in a concrete strip
you can buy the whole world in just one trip
and save a penny cause it’s jumbo size
they don’t even realize
they’er killin’ the little man
oh the little man
now the court square’s just a set of streets
that the people go round but they seldom think
bout the little man that built this town
before the big money shut em down
and killed the little man
oh the little man
it wasn’t long ago when i was a child
an old black man came with his mule and his plow
he broke the ground where we grew our garden
back before we’d all forgoten
about the little man
the little man
long live the little man
god bless the little man
