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
