A modest triple Decker in a section
That was working class
Not a lot of company
But we would go there after mass
Lace curtains in the windows
That had been there since the last great war
They were on first one
And the Mulligan's lived on the second floor
Sunday driving in the big Sedan
Soup and sandwich on the TV stand
Glad to be there, it was nice to have
Sunday afternoons on Wisdom Ave.
There was nothing in the pantry
And we can't be in the parlor there
It's really nothing fancy, honey
There is a half a dollar, dear
A John F. Kennedy coin
That you and your brother both can share
Just not the type of people
That are ever gonna to put on airs
Sunday driving in the big Sedan
Soup and sandwich on the TV stand
Glad to be there, it was nice to have
Sunday afternoons on Wisdom Ave.
Outside on the playground
There's a pick-up game of hoops
Picked up the Sunday Journal
At the Greeks
We would watch the Filipinos
With the yo-yo's on the stoop
But no, not on your life
Six days a week
No one was ever listening to anybody else
We only ever knew what we were told
Only on Wisdom Avenue on Sunday afternoons
Wisdom Ave's where everything grew old
Sunday driving in the big Sedan
Soup and sandwich on the TV stand
Had to be there just to see first-hand
Whatever had happened to my old man
Sunday driving in the big Sedan
Soup and sandwich on the TV stand
Glad to be there, it was nice to have
Sunday afternoons on Wisdom Ave.
