Old Folks - Bing Crosby (本·考斯比)[00:00:00]
Everyone knows him as old folks[00:00:09]
Like the seasons he'll come and he'll go[00:00:14]
Just as free as a bird and as good as his word[00:00:19]
That's why everybody loves him so[00:00:24]
Always leaving his spoon in his coffee[00:00:28]
Tucks his napkin up under his chin[00:00:33]
And his yellow cob pipe is so mellow hits right[00:00:37]
But you needn't be ashamed of him[00:00:43]
In the evenings after supper[00:00:47]
What stories he would tell[00:00:53]
How he held his speech at Gettysburg for Lincoln that day[00:00:57]
Lord I know that one so well[00:01:02]
I don't quite understand about old folks[00:01:07]
Did he fight for the blue or the gray [00:01:11]
Seems that I heard him mention[00:01:15]
He lives on a pension[00:01:19]
He'll never come right house and say[00:01:21]
Then he leaves the late train at the station[00:01:45]
Sits in the west holl when he always do[00:01:49]
Well he is so a male every night without fail[00:01:54]
He sneek himself littel nippel or two[00:01:59]
Every friday he'll go fishing[00:02:03]
Way down on bazers lake[00:02:08]
But he only hook the purche too of way to got away[00:02:13]
We have to warm up the stay[00:02:18]
Someday there'll be no more old folks[00:02:23]
What a longly old town this will be[00:02:27]
Children's voices at play will be still for a day[00:02:32]
The day they take old folks away[00:02:41]
