It's springtime in Stoneville And no one has a care Springtime in Stoneville And love is in the air
The Circle K was crowded Coffee was on sale Mr. Brown came down to buy Some stamps for his mail Mrs. Clark, she came in To buy kites for her kids They're selling so much coffee That they're running out of lids
It's springtime in Stoneville And no one has a care Springtime in Stoneville And love is in the air
Mrs. Brooks, she just dropped off Her kids at Little League Then she came by the Circle K To grab a glass of tea She ran into Liza Jones Over by the hot dog sign They giggled just like school girls While they stood there in line
It's springtime in Stoneville And no one has a care Springtime in Stoneville And love is in the air
Then out of the blue A stranger came through the door Pulled out a gun And opened fire on the store Mrs. Clark, Liza Jones Mr. Brooks and Mrs. Brown They dropped just like rocks When that gunner mowed them down
It's springtime in Stoneville And no one has a care Springtime in Stoneville And love is in the air
