1717 Saginaw Street
There’s a constant breeze blowin’ through
It’s first day on sale
The red sign fails to show it’s true value
It’s been a cornerstone here on Saginaw Street
It’s seen a generation end
The birth of old times, good friends and my fine family
Yes, and I’ve made my life’s memories
Here at 1717 Saginaw Street
Days of Radio Flyers
Elvis’s first forty fives
Blarin’ from the kitchen window
Mama dancin’ doin’ dishes
As the summer rolled by
Thanksgiving toasts in the halls
Then the winter would bring the cold
Oh, and every year at Christmas time
The place would come so alive
You’d swear the house had a soul
Yes, and I’ve made my life’s memories
Here at 1717 Saginaw Street
Ooh, ooh like a candle flickers when a door is opened
Ooh , ooh Life goes on Life goes on Life goes on Life goes on
There’s a constant breeze blowin’ through
It’s first day on sale
The red sign fails to show its true value
Yeh, but sittin’ on the porch
Hey, I thought I heard rain on the roof
Oh, and pulling in the drive
A young man and his wife
Find a deal they can’t refuse
Maybe they’ll make their life’s memories
Here at 1717 Saginaw Street
