My Simple Humble Neighborhood

Lyricist：Carole King, Maurice Sendak

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
Were 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, of 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, glamor boys
In other words, the [unverified], 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
