Old John Parker (Remastered) - Magna Carta[00:00:00]
Old John Parker staying up late[00:00:14]
Sitting by his garden gate[00:00:18]
Days of laughter and of tears[00:00:21]
Turning into falling years gone by[00:00:26]
What does he know[00:00:30]
What can he tell[00:00:32]
Of the things he's known[00:00:35]
Of the things he's seen what the reason for living has been[00:00:37]
The brown suit he wears is so patched at the knee[00:00:46]
And the stick that he leans on far older than me[00:00:51]
The frost of his age shining so white in his hair[00:00:56]
And his eyes are alive with knowing[00:01:00]
But he's so far away and he's happy that way[00:01:10]
With his dog and the world that he knows so well[00:01:15]
Just what he's thinking[00:01:18]
No one can tell[00:01:19]
Old John Parker dressed in black[00:01:25]
For sunday church walks there and back[00:01:29]
Clouds above him line the sky[00:01:33]
And autumn leaves turning slowly by[00:01:37]
What does he know[00:01:41]
What can he tell[00:01:43]
Of the things he's known[00:01:46]
Of the things he's seen what the reason for living has been[00:01:48]
In the summer he dozes and sits in the sun[00:01:57]
With his thumbs in the book he has never begun[00:02:02]
His garden around him and things to be done[00:02:06]
But he's happy just watching it growing[00:02:11]
But he's so far away and he's happy that way[00:02:21]
With his dog and the world that he knows so well[00:02:26]
Just what he's thinking[00:02:28]
No one can tell[00:02:30]
