Sesame Street - Forty Blocks From My Home lyrics

"Bye, Mom, Bye, Spot, see you later." Block 2, Block 3 My mom's still wavin' at me 4, 5, 6 The kids are all startin' to mix 7, 8, 9 I'm tryin' to keep from cryin' 10, count 'em 10 Man, I wish I was back home again! Yeah, life can be so cruel Goin' forty blocks to school Forty blocks from my home 11, 12, 13 I'm singin' the homesick blues 14, 15, 16 I'm shakin' inside my new shoes 17, 18, 19 That's 19 streets of sorrow 20, count 'em 20 Gotta do it again tommorow! Yeah, life can be so cruel Goin' forty blocks to school Forty blocks from my home 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27 Feels like I left my stomach somewhere back there around 11 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34 I can't go on much longer, man, but there's six blocks more! We turn around a corner, Block 35 looks great Now everybody's countin' off 36! 37! 38! We roll into the parking lot at number 39 Pull up to the door at 40, hey, 40 feels just fine! Yeah, 40's pretty cool I went 40 blocks to school Forty blocks from my home Yeah, 40's pretty cool I went 40 blocks to school Forty blocks from my home! Forty blocks from my home!
