Well I walked past just yesterday

 And I couldn't bear that new mall no more.

 Now, I can't expect you all to see it my way

 But you may not know what was there before

 And I want them to put back my old corner store

 Well I walked past just, uh like I say

 and I felt this hurt that would not go home

 I can't expect that you're going to see it my way

 But you may not know the trees I've known

 And I want them to put back my old corner store.

I know it cost more money to shop there.

 But this was love. This was lo-o-o-ove.

I know you had to pay more money. I'll pay money. I'll pay more!

I don't care what the mall has got. I want back that corner store!

 And what did I feel as I walked by slow?

 Sorrow. Sorrow all around.

 Why I would feel sorrow I now know.

I smelled a ghost smell from the ground:

 That old wooden smell from the old corner store.

I walked past one final time

 And I wished the worst on the place I shop.

 Now I can't expect everyone to feel like I am.

 But I spot a trend that has got to stop.

 And I want them to put back that old corner store.
