Dinkytown O Din-ky-to-wn |
|
The | day breaks on the carpool |
My first | class was not 'til noon |
So I | camped out in the stairwell |
People | stared but it was cool |
|
Up in |
Dinkytown O Din-ky-to-wn |
|
When | I was skipping classes |
And the | snow lay on the ground |
We were | falling on our asses, but |
A warm | place was to be found |
Up in |
Dinkytown O Din-ky-to-wn |
|
In September 69 |
I was standing in a line |
Behind "Spider" John Koerner |
At the record shop |
Where hipsters would all stop |
To buy The Beatles' |
Latest record |
Named Abbey Road |
|
West Bank, Cedar, Riverside |
Where the | café strummers linger |
I dreamed | I'd be with them soon |
I became a 6-string wringer |
I guess | some dreams do come true |
|
in |
Dinkytown O Din-ky-to-wn |
