Remember that country house we used to own
The one with the busted fence
We'd sit on our porches and greet all the passers by
Not giving more than a glimpse
In that little town off the border of Pittsburgh
We knew every face, every smile, every laugh
Remember the luster of a freshly dampened sidewalk
How the children would purposely Splash
Oh we worked in Señor Gonzales's shop
Preparing the lunch after lunch
Mrs. Petunia would give me a tip
And say "keep the change, don't show your boss"
On my way home, I'd pass Mark and his kids
Playing with a round orange ball
He and his kids have a big house with a sturdy yard
Complete with a bathroom stall
And the street boy is practicing violin
On his way to Carnegie Hall
When a hobo says "hi" to you
Time to go inside for you
That's when you'll get my call
Get my call
