Lyrics

Mister, Do You Know?

Chorus:
Mister, do you know how that old song goes?
I used to hear it playing on the radio.
It was a sad, sad song about a love gone wrong.
Hey mister, do you know how it goes?

Verse 1:
It?s Friday night and I?m singing my songs for my friends.
About nine o?clock an old gray haired man walked in.
He sat at the bar and he had a drink or three.
Looking lost he turned to me and he said?

Chorus:
Mister, do you know how that old song goes?
I used to hear it playing on the radio.
It was a sad, sad song about a love gone wrong.
Hey mister, do you know how it goes?

Verse 2:
Ten o?clock and tears fill the old man?s eyes.
I end my set and I find myself at his side.
He tells me a story ?bout a love gone bad
and he speaks of the dreams he had not so long ago.

Chorus:
Mister, do you know how that old song goes?
I used to hear it playing on the radio.
It was a sad, sad song about a love gone wrong.
Hey mister, do you know how it goes?

Bridge:
Then at last it comes to me, and I know what song he means.
So I?m up on the stage and I?m singing it just for my old man.

What?ll I do when you are far away and I am blue what?ll I do?

Old Man, this ones for you.
