Old Man
there's an old man 'round the corner
he's got salt and pepper hair
he's clothes are very faded and creased
he does not have many to wear
there's an old man 'round the corner
last year he lost his wife
he's still very sad and grim
but he must get on with life
there's an old man 'round the corner
his blankets are wearing thin
now he's very hungary
but he must scavenge from the bin
there's no old man round the corner
last night he passed away
now hes in heaven with god
he's strong and full and gay
