Lyrics:
The old man's hair was white and his eyes looked tired He drank his beer at the table all alone But he smiled when I spoke to him so I sat down for awhile I wound up sitting there the whole night long 'Cause I could see he had a lifetime on his mind So I just sat there and listened, I was glad to take the time. And he said... I saw Jimmy Rodgers yoddle on the stage And I saw Hank when the walked him to his grave I saw a country boy from Memphis Change the world with rock and roll And these old eyes have seen it all. Then he said... I saw friends of mine or foreign soil die proud I saw things over there, son, that I still can't talk about I saw a crazy man named Hitler and his army rise and fall Yeah, these old eyes have seen it all. These old eyes have seen it all Now the hands of time are writing on the wall Telling me I won't have long waiting for my Jesus to call These old eyes have seen it all. I saw sweet Mary love me, fifty years With a trembling hand we wiped away a tear He said my memories of Mary are the sweetest I recall And these old eyes have seen it all. These old eyes have seen it all They saw a man walk on the moon and come back home I know it won't be long before I hear my Jesus call These old eyes have seen it all...
