[00:00.00]时代音乐网 www.78497.com[00:13.83]The old Jimmy Woodser comes into the bar
[00:17.79]Unwelcomed unnoticed unknown
[00:21.75]Too old and too odd to be drunk with by far;
[00:26.07]So he glides to the end where the lunch baskets are
[00:30.44]And they say that he tipples alone
[00:35.27]And they say that he tipples alone
[00:39.63]His frockcoat is green and the nap is no more
[00:45.61]And his hat is not quite at its best;
[00:49.89]He wears the peaked collar our grandfathers wore
[00:53.90]The black-ribbon tie that was legal of yore
[00:59.14]And the coat buttoned over his breast
[01:03.16]And the coat buttoned over his breast
[01:09.12]But I dreamed as he tasted his 'bitter' to-night
[01:12.20]And the lights in the bar-room grew dim
[01:17.00]That the shades of the friends of that other day's
[01:20.84]Light
[01:21.25]And of girls that were bright in our grandfathers”
[01:24.79]Sight
[01:26.39]Lifted shadowy glasses to him
[01:30.16]Lifted shadowy glasses to him
[01:36.14]Yes the old Jimmy Woodser comes into the bar
[01:40.35]Unwelcomed unnoticed unknown
[01:44.23]Too old and too odd to be drunk with by far;
[01:48.07]So he glides to the end where the lunch baskets are
[01:53.37]And they say that he tipples alone
[02:05.58](Instrumental)
[02:20.85]Then I opened the door and the old man passed out
[02:24.75]With his short shuffling step and bowed head;
[02:28.20]And I sighed; for I felt as I turned me about
[02:32.72]An odd sense of respect born of whisky no doubt
[02:37.89]For a life that was fifty years dead
[02:41.63]For a life that was fifty years dead
[02:48.10]And I thought there are times when our memory trends
[02:52.08]Through the future as 'twere on its own
[02:56.20]That I out-of-date ere my pilgrimage ends
[03:00.03]In a new-fashioned bar to dead loves and dead friends
[03:06.39]Might drink like the old man alone
[03:10.39]Might drink like the old man alone
