0:15You'll always hear me say Hello Ma'am
0:20Thank you
0:20Good morning
0:21Looking fine
0:24It's all those old folks left here waiting
0:29That leapt my heart into my mind
0:32It's a sad sad feeling
0:36To still be around
0:39On every sunny Sunday morning
0:44All golden-aged and sittin' in
0:48Comes out to putter in the sunshine
0:53And shuffle through his deck of bein'
0:56It's a sad sad feeling
1:00To still be around
1:05And it's the same old tired park bench
1:09Nobody's found
1:12Soft wrinkled stories if you listen
1:17About the lazy days back when
1:21Your mom and dad were little babies
1:26And he had friends still livin' then
1:30It's a sad sad feeling
1:33To still be around
1:38And it's the same old tired park bench
1:42Nobody's found
1:46And there was a tree put there for shading
1:51That they cut down
1:54The fields he loved got turned to highways
1:58From horse to car to plane to moon
2:03Staying well meant that he feels older
2:07Yet none of his kids have the room
2:11It's a sad sad feeling
2:15To still be around
2:19And it's the same old tired park bench
2:23Nobody's found
2:28There was a tree put there for shading
2:32That they cut down
2:36And his old shoes
2:38Had worn a spot there
2:40From grass to ground
You'll always hear me say Hello Ma'am Thank you Good morning Looking fine It's all those old folks left here waiting That leapt my heart into my mind It's a sad sad feeling To still be around On every sunny Sunday morning All golden-aged and sittin' in Comes out to putter in the sunshine And shuffle through his deck of bein' It's a sad sad feeling To still be around And it's the same old tired park bench Nobody's found Soft wrinkled stories if you listen About the lazy days back when Your mom and dad were little babies And he had friends still livin' then It's a sad sad feeling To still be around And it's the same old tired park bench Nobody's found And there was a tree put there for shading That they cut down The fields he loved got turned to highways From horse to car to plane to moon Staying well meant that he feels older Yet none of his kids have the room It's a sad sad feeling To still be around And it's the same old tired park bench Nobody's found There was a tree put there for shading That they cut down And his old shoes Had worn a spot there From grass to ground
