Hanktown

It’s always shinin’…the sun is always shinin’ in Hanktown 

‘Round the corner from the bakery and the ice cream stand 

Lives a man, a man called Hank 

Everybody knows what Hank says goes 

He’s the unofficial mayor of the whole dang block 

And he says he’s pushin’ 90 but he’s never gonna stop 

‘Cause he’s got a boat to row…. 

Nothing gets by him up and down the street 

I repeat, not with Hank 

Everybody knows that’s just the way it goes 

He’s the oldest living member of the neighborhood 

And he says he’ll make a hundred ‘cause he still looks good 

And he’s got a boat to row…. 

It’s always shinin’…the sun is always shinin’ in Hanktown 

‘Round the corner on the border of Esterville 

Lives a girl, a girl who loves Hank 

Everybody knows that’s just the way she rolls 

It’s always shinin’…the sun is always shinin’ in Hanktown
