lyrics

I was feeling a little bit under the weather
What else is new
The wintertime blues were getting me down
So tired of wearing a frown

I was having my first cup of coffee and reading the early morning papers
Got to get away
Well I feel so far away

There's only one thing left to do put down the paper
I know there's more to life than misery
At S.H. Kress and Company

They have the best Christmas decorations and
Though they have a few limitations
I don't mind waiting in line
I've got a moment or two
They've got no computers to tell them what to do

Everybody's so happy walking around with shopping carts
They really have the Christmas spirit
It's a joy just to be near it
But be careful make sure if you park in lot 19
You don't back in the local parking people frown upon that kind of a scene

There's only one thing left to do when you get a parking ticket
Forget about your bad luck life is really just a comedy at
S.H. Kress and Company

They've got the best in new toys and
Their old toys arent bad
I've seen such happy girls and boys and
Such happy moms and dads
If you don't mind waiting in line I know you'll have a real good time
At Kress you never know what you might find

S.H. Kress I must confess is not only the finest place to be
It is right next to Billy's
After sipping from tin cups at Billy's why not have a shopping spree at
S.H. Kress and Company Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah

A three scoop ice cream sundae for a dollar o three
For a dollar nine you get a record by Melanie
If you don't mind waiting in line
I know you'll have a real good time
At Kress you never know what you may find
