Corner Store Lyrics

Outside the corner a different world
Conversation overheard, oh
Between a man and a saxophone
Saxophone and mister drunk and stoned, ohHe only knows one melody
You know which one I mean
I drop some change in his hat
And leaveWalk into the corner store
With neon signs and revolving doors, oh
As if just to add to the atmosphereThe man behind the counter
Has a snow white beard
That goes all the way down to the floor
I like the music on the radio
You know which one I meanAnd this is how it goes
Da da, da da, da da, da daOutside on the public phone
There he is again mister drunk and stoned, oh
Hes got no money but a golden smile
Sidewalk torero wave me by, ohIm whistling his melody
You know which one I mean

Suddenly he stops playing
And looks at meAnd the band goes
Da da, da da, da da, da da
