To Market, To Market

First, there was Jack’s
a small heimische store
you knew almost everyone
when you walked in the door

Then they moved,
can you believe it
down the block to 7 Mile Lane?
and 7 Mile Market
became their new name

They had
lots more room
and sold lots more food
all of it kosher
and so,
it was “good”

Baltimore grew
and the people they came
so they moved yet again
and they kept the same name

So proud of our market
in Baltimore’s town
our community has grown,
and we are renown

We’re ever so grateful
to you, Hashem
for keeping us fed
again and again

To market, to market
to buy what we need
home again, home again
our families to feed
