I played mandolin on the street when I could barely play a chord
and now I get anxious when I play with an open back door
Somehow lost the lifetime of encouragement I got there on Calle Main

All walks of life gave shaking life advice to a kid and his friend
The mayor stopped by and gave us change
instead of trespassing us from the village storefronts

We didn't recognize her but a crazed man filled us in on what a compliment it was afterwards
