Old Folks - Jack Teagarden[00:00:00]
Written by:Robison Willard/Hill Dedette Lee[00:00:01]
Everyone knows him as old folks[00:00:11]
Like the seasons he comes and he'll go[00:00:15]
Just as free as a bird and as good as his word[00:00:21]
That's why everybody loves him so[00:00:27]
Always leaving his spoon in his coffee[00:00:32]
Tucks his napkin up under his chin[00:00:37]
And that yellow pipe is so mellow hits right[00:00:42]
But you needn't be ashamed of him[00:00:48]
In the evenings after supper[00:00:53]
What stories he would tell[00:00:59]
How he held his speech at Gettysburg for Lincoln that day[00:01:04]
I know that one so well[00:01:11]
But I don't understand about old folks[00:01:15]
Did he fight for the blue or the gray[00:01:21]
But he's so democratic and so diplomatic[00:01:26]
You'll never come right and see[00:01:31]
