Текст песни My Simple Humble Neighborhood - Carole King

Here′s where it all began
Here's where I heard that beat
Here′s where I tapped that tap
With my natural rhythm feet
In my simple humble neighborhood
On my simple humble street
Here's where the dreams I had
Were crowded on a stoop
Pecked and pushed and hustled
Just like chickens in a coop
Life wasn't always neat
In my simple humble neighborhood
On my simple humble street
Here′s where I learned the rules
Of Rosie′s way
How to play
A magic game
That changed the same
Old sheepy bleat
In my simple humble neighborhood
On my simple humble street
Here's where I made up folks
Who came to visit me
Not just ordinary folks
Coming unexpectedly
Talent scouts, producers, directors
Glamour Boys
In other words
The Hoy-Poloys
The Grand Elite
To make them green with envy
In my simple humble neighborhood
On my simple humble street
Here′s where it all began
Here's where I heard that tune
Here′s where I sang of sailing
In a carnival balloon
Life was so darn sweet
In my simple humble neighborhood
On my simple humble street
In my simple humble neighborhood
On my simple humble street
