Bobby Russell - 1432 Franklin Pike Circle Hero lyrics

He's the 1432 Franklin Pike Circle Hero. 'n' you can see him ev'ry weekend with a carfull of kids and snow cones And the people 'cross town don't know his name But on Franklin Pike Circle he's king 1432 Franklin Pike Circle Hero Well, at five thirty-five at the corner of Franklin and Walnut A blue station wagon comes slidin' around the corner And on down Franklin Pike Circle all you're seein' is a streak of blue And pulls in the drive at the address of 1432 And he says "My head aches and my back hurts and I don't feel like talkin'" "Don't wan' go the show to see Doctor Zhivago" "Don't wanna take the dog out walkin'" "I wanna sit right here in this easy chair, it's been a jungle all day, you know" The 1432 Franklin Pike Circle Hero is home He was out pitching ball with the kids in the neighborhood yesterday And the ole major-leaguer had to quit 'cause he said he threw his arm away And the kids all hid behind the hedge and laughed at him but wouldn't let it show Because they love him so, He's the 1432 Franklin Pike Circle Hero He's the 1432 Franklin Pike Circle Hero 'n' you can see him ev'ry weekend with a carfull of kids and snow cones An', ya know, people 'cross town don't know his name But on Franklin Pike Circle he's king 1432 Franklin Pike Circle Hero Well , he won a little pony at the Hill High auction just the other day And he di'n't mean to do it and he wanted to give the pony away A-When they called out his name he tried not to claim it But the kids started cryin' 'cause they'd already named it And who's up ev'ry Saturday morning? Saddling his new toy? You guessed it- The 1432 Franklin Pike Circle Cowboy He's the 1432 Franklin Pike Circle Hero 'n' you can see him ev'ry weekend with a carfull of kids and snow cones Durin' Christmas took the kids down to see the floats When he wanted t'stay home and watch the Baltimore Colts 1432 Franklin Pike Circle Hero Well the ten-thirty news usually finds our hero is a sleepy head And Peter's out somewhere wreckin' the car And the rest 'the kids have gone to bed So she takes his hand, they climb the stairs and he falls asleep And she bends over him so tenderly to kiss his cheek 'cause she loves him so, and she's lucky, you know? To be married to the 1432, 1432 Franklin Pike Circle Hero He's the 1432 Franklin Pike Circle Hero 'n' you can see him ev'ry weekend with a carfull of kids and snow cones FADE Christmas time he took 'em down to see the floats When he wanted t'stay home and watch the Baltimore Colts 1432 Franklin Pike Circle Hero
