Sidewalk Days

Ladies and gentlemen
Sidewalk Days is coming

Don’t ask where everybody came from
Good Lord! Half of Saskatchewan’s here
Snowbirds screaming low above us
The Moose Jaw summer show ignites

Down the longest sidewalk in the universe
Endless booths stretch as far as you can see
So many flavors – you’d never taste them all
And the crowds – keep coming back every year

But I’m still searching
Searching for a friend I haven’t seen for years
When we finally meet!
Don’t just say hi
Pull me in and hold me near

Come down to the outdoor stage
Let the beat wake your heartbeat
Don’t worry if it’s way too loud
The bass is gonna rock this little town today

Come down to the outdoor stage
Raise your hands and sing it loud
Today this little town is wide awake
And the music’s taking over now

Somewhere at that corner years ago
We crossed paths beneath these skies
On this crowded street – it feels the same
Like time stood still, waiting for our return

That old stage is singing familiar songs
Songs we used to shout – when we were young
And strangers in the crowd – are dancing wild
Free in the sun just like before

Look, there’s a little boy right there
Standing beside his dad
Waving both hands in the air
Stomping his feet as hard as he can

Oh my friend
The music’s shaking this whole town
Forget your worries
Who cares if the speakers are too loud

Let the guitars brush across your soul
Let the drums drive your pulse
Don’t care how hard this July sun burns
You know the music’s taking over now

Come down to the outdoor stage
Let these notes run wild in your soul
Let every heartbeat and every cell
Find its place in rock and roll

Come down to the outdoor stage
Let these notes run wild in your soul
Let every heartbeat and every cell
Find their place in rock and roll

Oh my friend
Come down to the outdoor stage
Come on and… rock and roll

Oh Moose Jaw
