A stroll thru Little Village // Driving in my neighborhood

lyrics

Take a walk in a neighborhood you don't live in
Carry your new jacket and vellum pad too large for your arms
Say hello to the restaurant owners who are setting tacos and tamales outside their front door
Walk 1 block
Say hello to the grandmas on the sidewalk
Sitting in front of their table filled with trinkets and cloths
Walk 2 blocks
Say hello to a man sitting next to a table filled with soaps
They are free if you need it
Thank you but I am not from here
Just passing through

On your way back home you will feel like you're leaving home
But it's not your home-you're just passing through
This home isn't your home either
Is your home your bed? Feels comfortable

---

Streets hello three boys lying on the side of the street under the shade of a tree back on the grass phone in the air feet on the concrete a man vigorously rigorously paints the black metal fence if you turn on the street you'll see construction workers replacing panels of windows and on the same home there will be T-shirts hanging from the fence I think I took a wrong turn
