Easy Street

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Walk down my block, you’ll see A porch light, a painted tree Mrs. Lee is sweeping slow And Mr. Ray says, “Come on, go” There’s a dog by the corner store Kids on bikes, they want one more Every door got a name you know Every face says, “Stay, don’t go” [Pre-Chorus] And if you’re lost We’ll show you where Just take my hand The whole street’s there [Chorus] This is easy street Come on, sing with me Easy street Where the whole block meets Easy street Hear the screen doors beat Easy street That’s the place for me [Verse 2] There’s a chalk line on the ground Where the best hopscotch is found Orange cones and a bent old hoop Little kids in a double loop Somebody’s grill is in the yard Summer smells hit soft and hard And every laugh rolls out for free Right past the fence, right down the street [Pre-Chorus] And if you’re tired We’ve got a chair A glass of sweet tea And people there [Chorus] This is easy street Come on, sing with me Easy street Where the whole block meets Easy street Hear the screen doors beat Easy street That’s the place for me [Bridge] No rush, no race Just a friendly face If you need a hand We all understand [Final Chorus] This is easy street Come on, sing with me Easy street Where the whole block meets Easy street Hear the screen doors beat Easy street That’s the place for me
