Doubleback Alley |
People were proud in Doubleback Alley |
Neighbors were loud, but ever so pally |
People would shout, joking about |
The smoke and the soot, Mother would put |
The milk bottles out |
We had a good time in Doubleback Alley |
With fences to climb, and Father O’Malley |
To clip your ear, and steer you clear |
Of the funny man in the ice cream van |
Who talked so queer |
Doubleback Alley takes me back and in my mind I see |
Happy, smiling faces if I flog my memory |
Plenty to do in Doubleback Alley |
Play peek-a-boo with Saccharine Sally |
Bouncing a ball against a wall |
Showing her drawers, «You come indoors!» |
Her dad would call |
(Aaaaaah) |
(La la la laaaaaa) |
(Laaaaaa) |
(La la la laaaaaa) |
Doubleback Alley takes me back |
And in my mind I see |
Happy, smiling faces if I flog my memory |
Stinking of gin in Doubleback Alley |
Grinning a grin in Doubleback Alley |
Kick a dustbin, bingo to win |
Windows to break, Mother would take |
The milk bottles in |
Doubleback Alley takes me back |
And in my mind I see |
Happy, smiling faces if I flog my memory |
Doubleback Alley takes me back |
And in my mind I see |
Happy, smiling faces if I flog my memory |
Doubleback Alley |
