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.
