A tribute to All around Garwood from the Garwood Senior’s Club
North Side, South side
Sung to the tune of “The Sidewalks of New York”
(music starts-east side west side all around the town)– music by Blake & Lawlor 1890 Rewritten Lyrics by Bruce Paterson, Garwood, NJ 10 / 20 /11
(intro music by Gene)
North side, south side
We’re a tiny town
You walk around the whole outside
And we’re near a mile around
Your hat blows off on center
It lands smack dab onto East.
You stop to talk to the neighbors
So you don’t mind in the least.
Uptown, Downtown
They’re a block apart
If you don’t find it while at Shop Rite
You can get one in Pathmark
The train cars come a’rumblin
But if the passengers blink
They’ll miss that ol’ Garwood trainstop
As it passes by in a wink.
North side, south side
We’re a tiny town
You walk around the whole outside
And we’re near a mile around
On Hazel you’ll be sneezin’
From Third, you’ll hear “God bless you”
We may be a small tiny boro
But we love it thru and thru.
