The Old Man and His Horn - The Hit Crew (热歌组合)[00:00:00]

The Old man told his story[00:00:08]

About the years gone by[00:00:12]

How he played his horn down in New Orleans[00:00:15]

In some old dingy dive[00:00:20]

"I knew 'em all back then " he said[00:00:24]

As he reached out for his horn[00:00:27]

He closed his eyes and wet his lips[00:00:31]

Then the blues were born [00:00:36]

He played with so much feelin'[00:00:47]

Tears came from his eyes[00:00:52]

He stopped and reminisced a bit[00:00:55]

And then he gave a sigh [00:01:00]

Said "You know I almost made it[00:01:03]

But that was before your time[00:01:07]

Dixieland Po' Folks Blues[00:01:11]

ScatMan Jack and wine "[00:01:15]

Slapped his knee and gave a grin[00:01:20]

It sure was good back then[00:01:24]

Reaching for his horn on the floor[00:01:29]

Placed it in an old towsack[00:01:36]

That hung across his back[00:01:41]

He said "Goodbye "[00:01:45]

And shuffled out the door [00:01:47]

Enthused by what he told me[00:01:53]

I never got his name[00:01:57]

So I called the waitress over[00:02:00]

And started to explain[00:02:05]

A tired old man - his tarnished horn[00:02:09]

Mem'ries of years gone by[00:02:13]

How he played his horn and reminisced[00:02:16]

Smiled with tear-dimmed eyes [00:02:21]

She said you are mistaken[00:02:26]

There's been no one but you[00:02:30]

But I know who you're talkin' 'bout[00:02:34]

I used to know him too[00:02:38]

You'll find him down on Basin Street[00:02:43]

In back of an old churchyard[00:02:46]

A stone that reads "Rest in Peace"[00:02:50]

I tried but it sure was hard "[00:02:54]

Slapped his knee and gave a grin[00:02:59]

It sure was good back then[00:03:04]

Reaching for his horn on the floor[00:03:08]

Placed it in an old towsack[00:03:15]

That hung across his back[00:03:20]

He said "Goodbye "[00:03:24]

And shuffled out the door[00:03:26]

He said "Goodbye "[00:03:32]

And shuffled out the door[00:03:34]
