[Verse 1]
F C
I remember walk'in round the court square sidewalk
A#
Lookin' in windows at things I could want
F C
There's Johnson's hardware and Morgan's jewelry
A#
And the ol' Lee King's apothecary
F A#
They were the little man
F
The little man
[Verse 2]
F C
I go back now and the stores are all empty
A#
Except for an old coke sign dated 1950
F C
Boarded up like they never existed
A#
Or renovated and called historic districts
F A#
There goes the little man
F
There goes the little man
[Chorus]
Dm A#
Now the court square's just a set of streets
F C
That the people go round but they seldom think
Dm A#
Bout the little man that built this town
F C
Before the big money shut em down
F A#
And killed the little man
F A#
Oh the little man
[Verse 3]
F C
He pumped your gas and he cleaned your glass
A#
And one cold rainy night he fixed your flat
F C
The new stores came where you do it yourself
A#
You buy a lotto ticket and food off the shelf
F A#
Forget about the little man
F
Forget about that little man
[Verse 4]
F C
He hung on there for a few more years
A#
But he couldn't sell slurpees, and he wouldn't sell beer
F
Now the bank rents the station
C
To a man down the road
A#
And they sell velvet Elvis and second-hand clothes
F A#
There goes the little man
F
There goes another little man
[Chorus]
Dm A#
Now the court square's just a set of streets
F C
That the people go round but they seldom think
Dm A#
Bout the little man that built this town
F C
Before the big money shut em down
F A#
And killed the little man
F
Oh the little man
[Instrumental]
Dm A# F C Dm A# F C F F
[Verse 5]
F C
Now the stores are lined up in a concrete strip
A#
You can buy the world with just one trip
F C
And save a penny cause it's jumbo size
A#
And they don't even realize
F A#
They're killin' the little man
F
Oh the little man
[Chorus]
Dm A#
Now the court square's just a set of streets
F C
That the people go round but they seldom think
Dm A#
Bout the little man that built this town
F C
Before the big money shut em down
F A#
And killed the little man
F A#
Oh the little man
[Verse 6]
F C
It wasn't long when I was a child
A#
An old black man came with his mule and his plow
F C
He broke the ground where we grew our garden
A#
Back before we'd all forgotten
F A#
About the little man
F A#
The little man
F A#
Long live the little man
F
God bless the little man
