Down our way
(Down our way)
Both night and day
(Night and day)
You know everybody and they all know you
And even policemen say
How do you do
Pals by the score
(By the score)
And gals galore
(Gals galore)
And that old gang of mine
They sang Sweet Adeline
Down our way
Down our way
Oh, gee
But I wish that I could wander through the fields
Of clover and the noon more way
And go strolling along the dusty country lane
And mist the beautiful flowers that bloom in May
And on Saturday nights
You go a courtin’ with your girlie
‘Neath the bright and silvery moon
And on your way to church on Sunday morning
People all say
How do you do
I wish that I could spin a yarn of spool
With all the boys at the corner grocery store
I could even see that good time horse bell
You rang at Billy Smithey’s store
And that old gang
They sang Sweet Adeline
Down our way
Down our way
