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...
