Lyrics
Before the street is waking Keys are in my hand The shop was nearly closing Still I make a stand Shutters up, shutters up Open for the day Shutters up, shutters up I am here to stay Big stores on the corner Bright and loud and tall Little shop stays open Standing proud and small Shutters up, shutters up Open for the day Shutters up, shutters up I am here to stay Echo, echo Down the empty street Echo, echo Footsteps coming near First one at the doorway Rings the little bell Morning, how are you now All is going well Shutters up, shutters up Open for the day Shutters up, shutters up I am here to stay I am here to stay Here to stay
