Corner Store Lyrics

Outside the corner a different world
Conversation overheard ohohhh
Between a man and a saxophone
Saxophone and mister drunk and stoned ohohh
He only knows one melody
You know which one I mean
I drop some change in his hat and leave.

Walk into the corner store
Through neon signs and revolving doors..ohohh
As if just to add to the atmosphere
The 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 mean

And this is how it goes: [Horns playing]
Da da, da da, da da, da da, da daa

Outside on the public phone
There's again Mister drunk and stoned ohohh
He's got no money but a golden smile
Sidewalk torero waves me by ohohh ooh
I'm whistling his melody
You know which one I mean
Suddenly he stops playing
And looks at me

And the band goes: [Horns playing]
Da da, da da, da da, da da, da daa
Humming
