In the shade of Shelfer Street playin' in that summer heat
I wore blisters on my feet then, I'd sleep with my windows open wide
And a good feelin' down deep inside
Man, I really had it made in the shade of Shelfer Street
It's where I used to dream real big
Pretend I was Billy The Kid
Mamma never worried 'bout me
That's how life used to be
In the shade of Shelfer Street playin' in that summer heat
I wore blisters on my feet then, I'd sleep with my windows open wide
And a good feelin' down deep inside
Man, I really had it made in the shade of Shelfer Street
It's where we learned to play together
And we looked out for one another
And I could have stayed forever, forever
In the shade of Shelfer Street just playin' in that summer heat
I wore blisters on my feet then, I'd sleep with my windows open wide
And a good feelin' down deep inside
Man, I really had it made, I said, man, I really had it
Made in the shade of Shelfer Street, Shelfer Street
