(the song)
R. Dafremen B.Cupler (Public Worx)
Alicia bends down
sweeps the dust off of the floor
wipes the dust from the shelves
off the bell over the door
'cause she can see it
like it was yesterday
and the things she'll say
to the regulars
when she gets some
right now she ain't got none
just high hopes
riding on a dream
and a little store
in the barrio
what more do you need?
and if she keeps on dreamin
one day the world will see
all of her high hopin
has become reality
It's a small store
located on a big street
in between a pawn shop
and a burrito stop
where the locals meet
Talking 'bout their high hopes
They're talking 'bout their big dreams
Talking 'bout a little store
in the barrio
that's got nothing
that nobody needs
Just a friendly lady
with a friendly smile
they smile right back
and walk on by
'cause they don't have a dime
or half of the time
that it takes
to make her dreams come true
to take a handful of something
and spend it on nothing's
not the sort of thing
the locals do
And so she waits there
like she did just yesterday
and the things they say
never bother her
'cause she knows
she's gonna make it some day
See, she's got high hopes
riding on a dream
and a little store in the barrio
what more do you need?
and if she keeps on dreamin
one day the world will see
all of her high hopin
has become reality
High hopes
ridin on a dream
and a little store in the barrio
what more do you need?
and if you keep on dreamin
one day the world will see
all of your high hopin
has become reality
Yea you go Alicia.
Don't listen to what they have to say anyway.
Looks like you're doing alright to me.
