About the Song

This song was the title track of Raffi's 1979 Corner Grocery Store LP.

There was cheese, cheese, walkin` on its knees
In the store, in the store
There was cheese, cheese, walkin` on its knees
In the corner grocery store.

My eyes are dim, I cannot see
I have not brought my specs with me
I have not brought my specs with me

There were plums, plums, twiddling their thumbs…

There was corn, corn, blowin` on a horn…

There were beans, beans, trying on some jeans…

There was more, more, just inside the door...
