[Verse 1]
G# D#
I remember walk'in round the court square sidewalk
C#
Lookin' in windows at things I could want
G# D#
There's Johnson's hardware and Morgan's jewelry
C#
And the ol' Lee King's apothecary
G# C#
They were the little man
G#
The little man
[Verse 2]
G# D#
I go back now and the stores are all empty
C#
Except for an old coke sign dated 1950
G# D#
Boarded up like they never existed
C#
Or renovated and called historic districts
G# C#
There goes the little man
G#
There goes the little man
[Chorus]
Fm C#
Now the court square's just a set of streets
G# D#
That the people go round but they seldom think
Fm C#
Bout the little man that built this town
G# D#
Before the big money shut em down
G# C#
And killed the little man
G# C#
Oh the little man
[Verse 3]
G# D#
He pumped your gas and he cleaned your glass
C#
And one cold rainy night he fixed your flat
G# D#
The new stores came where you do it yourself
C#
You buy a lotto ticket and food off the shelf
G# C#
Forget about the little man
G#
Forget about that little man
[Verse 4]
G# D#
He hung on there for a few more years
C#
But he couldn't sell slurpees, and he wouldn't sell beer
G#
Now the bank rents the station
D#
To a man down the road
C#
And they sell velvet Elvis and second-hand clothes
G# C#
There goes the little man
G#
There goes another little man
[Chorus]
Fm C#
Now the court square's just a set of streets
G# D#
That the people go round but they seldom think
Fm C#
Bout the little man that built this town
G# D#
Before the big money shut em down
G# C#
And killed the little man
G#
Oh the little man
[Instrumental]

[Verse 5]
G# D#
Now the stores are lined up in a concrete strip
C#
You can buy the world with just one trip
G# D#
And save a penny cause it's jumbo size
C#
And they don't even realize
G# C#
They're killin' the little man
G#
Oh the little man
[Chorus]
Fm C#
Now the court square's just a set of streets
G# D#
That the people go round but they seldom think
Fm C#
Bout the little man that built this town
G# D#
Before the big money shut em down
G# C#
And killed the little man
G# C#
Oh the little man
[Verse 6]
G# D#
It wasn't long when I was a child
C#
An old black man came with his mule and his plow
G# D#
He broke the ground where we grew our garden
C#
Back before we'd all forgotten
G# C#
About the little man
G# C#
The little man
G# C#
Long live the little man
G#
God bless the little man
