Main Street Melody

(hmmmmm) Morning paper

on the kitchen table

Steam rises from a porcelain cup

Old screen door swinging on its cable

As the sleepy little town wakes up

Barber shop has got the radio humming

Kids are trading baseball cards outside

Can you hear the evening train a-coming

Carrying the local high school pride

It's a canvas painted with a simple hand

Everyday grace in this quiet land

Sunday dress and a friendly face

Time stands still in this small-town space

(ahhhh, oh

yes)

Soda fountain

with the red stool spinning

Doctor checking

on a little boy's knee

Underneath the porch light we're all grinning

Living out a simple memory It's a canvas painted with a simple

hand

Everyday grace in this quiet land

Sunday dress and a friendly face

Time stands still in this small-town space

No rush to meet tomorrow

No worries on the breeze

Just capturing the moments

Between the apple trees

Just a simple

canvas... (hmmmmm)
