《Old John Parker(Remastered)》歌词

[00:00:00] Old John Parker (Remastered) - Magna Carta

[00:00:14] Old John Parker staying up late

[00:00:18] Sitting by his garden gate

[00:00:21] Days of laughter and of tears

[00:00:26] Turning into falling years gone by

[00:00:30] What does he know

[00:00:32] What can he tell

[00:00:35] Of the things he's known

[00:00:37] Of the things he's seen what the reason for living has been

[00:00:46] The brown suit he wears is so patched at the knee

[00:00:51] And the stick that he leans on far older than me

[00:00:56] The frost of his age shining so white in his hair

[00:01:00] And his eyes are alive with knowing

[00:01:10] But he's so far away and he's happy that way

[00:01:15] With his dog and the world that he knows so well

[00:01:18] Just what he's thinking

[00:01:19] No one can tell

[00:01:25] Old John Parker dressed in black

[00:01:29] For sunday church walks there and back

[00:01:33] Clouds above him line the sky

[00:01:37] And autumn leaves turning slowly by

[00:01:41] What does he know

[00:01:43] What can he tell

[00:01:46] Of the things he's known

[00:01:48] Of the things he's seen what the reason for living has been

[00:01:57] In the summer he dozes and sits in the sun

[00:02:02] With his thumbs in the book he has never begun

[00:02:06] His garden around him and things to be done

[00:02:11] But he's happy just watching it growing

[00:02:21] But he's so far away and he's happy that way

[00:02:26] With his dog and the world that he knows so well

[00:02:28] Just what he's thinking

[00:02:30] No one can tell
