Lyrics

I’m sweating here in the sun, knowing my work has just begun
Planting flower in a row, so they can watch them grow
I’m someone that they don’t see, just part of the scenery
They don’t care about my plight, unless it’s on the TV tonight.

I want to live on the Shady side of the street
Where the sun’s not as hot and the lemonade taste sweet
Where their hands are clean and everything’s so neat
I want to live on the Shady side of the street

They drive Big Lexus Car’s , their wife’s all look like movie stars
The kids all have white strait teeth and Ipods to keep the beat
Play games on Big TVs, can’t say please or Excuse me
Never worked a day in their life, have no troubles have no Strife

I want to live on the Shady side of the street
Where the sun’s not as hot and the lemonade taste sweet
Where their hands are clean and everything’s so neat
I want to live on the Shady side of the street

I’m not looking to change my life, start all over or find a new wife
Don’t need to be a millionaire, just want to live over there ….

I want to live on the Shady side of the street
Where the sun’s not as hot and the lemonade taste sweet
Where their hands are clean and everything’s so neat
I want to live on the Shady side of the street

My life would be so fine and I’d feel totally complete, If I could live on the Shady side of the street
Sitting in the Shade, sipping lemonade, if I could live on the shady side of the street
