Jonathan Richman - The Lonely Little Thrift Store lyrics

By the sidewalk there with the cracks in it With the mexican restauraunt next to it With the clothes for the big and the fat in it And the moth-ball smell to the hats in it Is the lonely little thrift store The hard luck little thrift store where I go Well its and old store front from the 30's And it gives you a feel of the old days And the next door barber shop Where famous athletes used to stop But now this neighborhood is down And there's garbage on the ground By the lonely little thrift store The hard luck little thrift store where I go Well alright Well the avocado green appliances With the smell of domestic violences And the dusty farvor(?) wear And the rusty dinette chair In the lonely little thrift store The hard luck little thrift store where I go Yeah The record by the hundred one strings And other lonely little things See how that popcorn popper looks sad 'Cause of the short little life it's had Once it was a happy wedding gift But when they split it too got left In the lonely little thrift store The hard luck little thrift store where I go
