Lyrics[]
- There always comes a time,
- Where the stores in your home are running down,
- And you have to go to town
- But then someone comes to Greendale
- And it makes life so much easier, easier, easier, easier...
- For twice a week,
- There comes a mobile shop
- Up to the valley, (valley)
- And folks are delighted when he comes around,
- For it always will save the long journey to town,
- From the valley (the valley)
- He's always on time
- As he rings out his chime
- In the valley (valley)
- Mothers can plan with a great shopping list
- If he cut out of service, oh, he'd be terribly missed
- In the valley (the valley)
- For it's a traveling store of great surprise
- To please your tastes and feast your eyes
- All the things you may want
- And the things you might need
- Sam's the man who runs it
- And he's a very smart fellow indeed
- For there's more inside the traveling shop than you ever could believe
- There's more inside that traveling shop than you ever could believe
- Sam Waldron knows
- What the people will want
- In the valley (valley)
- He buys in the town then he takes things around
- All his customers know that he won't let them down
- In the valley (the valley)
- For it's a traveling store of great surprise
- To please your tastes and feast your eyes
- All the things you may want
- And the things you might need
- Sam's the man who runs it
- And he's a very smart fellow indeed
- For there's more inside the traveling shop than you ever could believe
- There's more inside that traveling shop than you ever could believe
- There's more inside that traveling shop than you ever could believe
