Old Folks - Ernestine Anderson[00:00:00]
Everyone knows him as old folks[00:00:15]
Like the seasons he'll come and he'll go[00:00:24]
Just as free as a bird[00:00:32]
And as good as his word[00:00:36]
That's why everybody loves him so[00:00:40]
Always leaving his spoon in his coffee[00:00:47]
Tucks his napkin up under his chin[00:00:57]
And his own corn cob pipe is so mellow [00:01:04]
Hits right[00:01:11]
But you needn't be ashamed of him[00:01:14]
In the evenings after supper[00:01:21]
What stories he tells[00:01:31]
How he held his speech[00:01:37]
At Gettysburg for Lincoln that day[00:01:40]
You know I know that one so well[00:01:47]
We don't know understand about old folks[00:01:55]
Did he fight for the blue or the gray [00:02:02]
But he's so democratic and so diplomatic[00:02:11]
We always let him have his way[00:02:21]
Some day there gona be no more old folks[00:06:18]
What a lonely old world this will be[00:06:27]
Children's voices[00:06:33]
At play be still for one day [00:06:35]
The day they day take old folks away[00:06:46]
