The tearing down of the Norris Theatre back in the 90’s brought back
many wonderful memories of movies, dates and fun. They can tear
down the building but they can’t take the memories out of my heart. Now everything is what's best for corporate America.
Lyrics
Intro
Tracy, Hepburn, Doris Day
All playing on Main St. in the USA
Verse 1
They don’t sell dreams on Main St.
Hollywood’s gone away
There are no coming attractions
With stars of yesterday
Where do older kids go
For popcorn and a matinee
They go down to Main St.
Main St. USA
Verse 2
The Grand is gone from the east end
Of Main St. USA
The Norris became a McDonald’s
They had room for kids to play
Where do older children go
When they lose their way
They go down to Main St.
Main St. USA
Chorus
Main St. Main St.
Monroe, Bogey and Joel McKrae
Main St. Main St.
Tracy Hepburn, Doris Day
Verse 3
The Palm is gone from Palmerton
On Delaware Ave. USA
The drive-in’s gone from the main line
Making room for the rich to stay
Where do older kids go
When their dreams fade away
They go down to Main St.
Main St. USA
Chorus
LITTLE RED BUS
