Downtown was made for you and me!
Downtown is your town; Downtown is my town
From the railroad depot to the Page Street stoplight
From Cooper’s Causeway
all the way down to Mandt Park
Downtown was made for you and me.
1
As I was walking this ribbon of highway
A sign above me said “US Highway 51” (NOTE: should be spoken instead of sung)
But my heart tells me it’s really OUR Main Street….
Downtown is where we want to be.
2
Highway construction will come to Downtown
We’ll see destruction, but there’s no need to frown
We’ll make improvements and save our history
Our Library came from Carnegie.
3
Downtown is lovely, let’s make it lively
Let’s make it social, downright bee-hive-y!
Bring folks together, let’s make ‘em happy…
Downtown’s the HEART of our City!

Time to protect it and pay it forward
Don’t let this road work leave us a ghost town
Step up like Stoughton’s volunteers before us,
