Five and Dime

Everyone in this town is saying the same thing

Wait 'til tomorrow see what that brings

The moon rises brings surprises to this small town

Johnny waits in line for the number nine

Talks aloud remembering simpler times

When a girl was on his arm

And the world was full of charm

And the sun coming up meant a better day

He says take me back

To a time I knew before

Before I opened my eyes

And knew I wanted more

Anny waits in line at the five and dime

The men stare she says she doesn't mind

There's seven mouths to feed

And she wears it on her sleeve

And she remembers the day

She said she was gonna leave

She says take me back

To a time I knew before

Before I opened my eyes

And knew I wanted more

Ooh it's tough to follow

Time's not easy to swallow

And we all long for yesterday

We said take us back

To a time we knew before

Before we opened our eyes

And knew we wanted more
