Maplewood Drive

Posted in Lyrics. Written by Chris Reading on January 1st, 2008

You won’t hear a rooster crow
But you can set your watch by Joe
He’s up to get the paper every morning at 5 am.
Pretty soon the lights come on
By 8 o’clock the kids are gone
Down to the corner to catch the bus with all their friends
And another day begins

Chorus
On Maplewood drive
Where the leaves change colors, come fall the ground is covered
With footsteps, of little ghosts, dressed up to trick or treat
Then it’s Christmas lights and New Year’s Eve
The flowers bloom and it all repeats
Cuz another year, won’t change much around here
It’s just every day life
On Maplewood Dr.

Third house on the right
Front yard, a big pink sign
That welcomes a new addition to this old neighborhood
And down at the other end
There’s a 24-foot moving van
Looks like this time she said goodbye for good
She stayed as long as she could

Repeat Chorus

Bridge
It could be any street
In any town
Different faces, but look around, and you’ll see
You might be…

Repeat Chorus
