The Maple Street Waltz Lyrics

There's a small stream down main street

Down Maple Street where we used to live

Don't speak ... whisper it

The walls have ears in towns like this

The sunset's reflecting off every window

Of every car that ever was supposed to take us out of here

And I've known you since the day you were born

Lift your chin up, the circus is coming to town

And the corner stores are closing down

And the unions will push us and push us

'Till everything's gone

Your last pair of roller skates

Got thrown away ten years ago

And the garbage dump is bigger than anything here now

Dad says if things go to worse we'll be moving again

If we lose as much as last time there'll be nothing left

Lift your chin up, the circus is coming to town

And the corner stores are closing down

And the unions will push us and push us

'Till everything's gone

Get the playing cards, but I wanna play a little myself

I turn the TV on, but there's nothing on as usual

Shut the windows, there's a storm coming up again

And don't go out tonight my love don't you go anywhere
