Sidewalks - John D. Loudermilk

Sidewalks

What became of the sidewalks

Those shady lanes of concrete

So cool to naked young feet

Ooohh, sidewalks

That Mama swept

And kept

Sidewalks

What became of the sidewalks

That blushing brides would stroll on

And stroller wheels would roll on

On those sidewalks

Where marbles bounced high

As high as the sky

We used to skate there

And double date there

We planned our fate there

Then you said goodbye

Sidewalks

What became of those sidewalks

That old folks stood and talked on

And hearts we drew with chalk on

And friendly strangers walked on

Oh, those sidewalks

Oh, where did they go?

I miss them so
