Текст песни Misc Unsigned Bands - Four Pennies Chiffons - My Block

My Block:The Four Pennies.
#67 on BB Hot 100 on RUST Records
in 1963.

(They were really The Chiffons and had two hits 
 under the Pennies name..this one and 'When My Boy's Happy.
 They abandoned the 4 Pennies name when 'He's So Fine' hit big.)

  (x2)

Shang--lang-lang..shang--lang-lang..

#1.
I'd be too ashamed to meet you..if you came to 
my block (my block.)
So, when we had a date, I'd meet you somewhere 
in the heart of town.
And when you took me home we'd go nowhere near 
my block.
Cause I led you to believe that I lived in a 
better part of town.

#2.
Would you still love me if you should ever see me
on my block?
(Shang--lang-lang..shang--lang-lang.)
The feeling that you feel would be lost among the 
steel and stone.
(Shang--lang-lang..shang--lang-lang.)
You never see a flower grow..oh, no, not on my, my, 

my, my block.
(aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh.)
And when the sun goes down a stranger shouldn't walk 
alone.
(Shang--lang-lang..shang--lang-lang.)

(INTERLUDE:)   

#3.
After work one night beneath the lamppost light on my 

block (my block.)
(Shang--lang-lang..shang--lang-lang.)
You suddenly appeared and I feared the little game I 
played was through.
(Shang--lang-lang..shang--lang-lang.)
But when you took my hand it was so grand walking down
my, my, my, my block.
(aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.)
Then right before my very eyes my block became a paradise 
with you.
(Shang--lang-lang..shang--lang-lang.)

Walk up to my house and step inside..it's my block (my block.)
No more, don't have nothing more to hide..it's my, my, my, 

my block..
Angels started dancing in the street..on my block..(Fade.)

A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
