Down on the corner of the street
Where I was born we used to meet
And sing the old songs
We called them dole songs
And we'd harmonize so clear
Even though it was the beer
That made the tears run
About the years gone by
And we'd go home and kiss the wife
Hoping a kiss could change your life
That's how romance is
No second chances
Back in my home town
(instrumental break)
Things aren't so very different now
Poor folk must get along somehow
You live forever
On the never never
Back in my home town
