Vaughan Dr Lyrics

There's a famous book about the street that I grew up in

A street sign for a baby boy just got put in

They turned eighty acres into a million dollars

And a school parking lot

I'm crying as you cut down the crabapple tree

Said at least we'd always have the evergreen

But they turned it to mulch

When they bought our house and widened the street

I'm looking up at my father

Know that he's gonna live forever

And I slide a tie over his head

Said his brain's just not working

And his hands have been shaking

Can't seem to make the knot that he's been making

The last thirty years
