That old time feelinĄŻ
|
Goes sneekinĄŻ the hall
|
Like an old grey tomcat in winter
|
Keeping his back to the wall
|
|
That old time feelinĄŻ
|
Goes stumbling up the street
|
Like an old salesman kickinĄŻ
|
Papers away from his feet
|
|
That old time feelinĄŻ
|
Draws circles around the block
|
Like a woman with any children
|
Holding hands with the clock
|
|
That old time feelinĄŻ
|
Falls on its face in a park
|
Like an old wino wonderinĄŻ
|
If hell make it till it gets dark
|
|
That old time feelinĄŻ
|
Comes and goes in the rain
|
Like an old man with his checkers
|
Dying to find him a game
|
|
That old time fellinĄŻ
|
Plays for beer in a bar
|
Like an old blues time picker
|
Who donĄŻt recall who you are
|
|
That old time fellinĄŻ
|
Limps through the light on a crutch
|
Like an old soldier a wonderinĄŻ
|
If heĄŻs paid too much
|
|
That old time feelinĄŻ
|
Rocks and spits and cries
|
Like an old lover rememberinĄŻ
|
The girl with the clear blue eyes
|
|
That old time feelinĄŻ ĄŠ
|
