Old Timer

Old timer's at it again,
I saw him earlier,
pulling back the curtains
And hoping she'd be looking.

Old timer's singing again,
I heard him earlier,
Spinning his old records
To see if she'd come dancing.

Old timer's drinking again,
I saw him earlier,
Pouring out his troubles
And hoping she'd come running.

Old timer's crying again,
I heard him earlier,
And I'd finish this tale for you
But you know how it ends.
