作曲 : Buchanan, Enter The Haggis
I met an old man one night in a bar 
He was sitting alone 
The way men his age always are 
His movements were slow 
Didn't speak very well 
But every old man has a story to tell 
He lived by the book 
Went to church every day 
But his wife left him young 
With two daughters and bills to pay 
He worked himself hard 
And the years flickered past 
His girls kept him young 
But they grew up so fast 
Prodigal faith always felt second best 
When she turned seventeen 
She took her coat and her camera 
And headed west 
It broke her dad's heart 
But as he likes to say 
With enough time apart 
Even faith fades away 
Jenny met 
Ray in his last days ashore 
They married in 
May And that 
August he joined the war 
He said Jenny don't cry 
I'll be home in the fall 
So she held her head high 
And said nothing at all 
Then he got in a plane 
Took it up in the air 
It never came down 
For all she knows it's stlil 
Flying around up there 
Then Jenny went wrong 
And the last that 
I heard It's been seven years long 
Since she uttered a word 
Seven years gone 
Since she uttered a word 
Now her father just sits 
All alone at the bar 
He orders his drinks 
And smokes cigarettes 
He knows he can't afford 
He's got no regrets 
Says he's doing quite well 
But every old man 
Has a story to tell
