It's The Morning Soon He'll Rise

Find The Glasses For His Eyes

Aren't What They Used To Be

Picks Up The Clothes He's Worn So Long

On The Bureau Sits The Picture Of A Lady

And The Mural Of A Man Who's Been Gone For Many Years



(CHORUS)

The Old Man Walks In Echo Park

From Bench To Bench He Moves From Morning 'til Dark

For The Ducks Some Bread He Brings

Wonder If He'll Feed Them This Time Next Spring



Listening To The Children Play

Reminds Him Of Other Days

Many Years Ago

Thoughts Of A Child That He Helped Grow

And The Memory Of A Letter Saying Dear Sir

We Regret To Inform You, Your Son Will Not Be Coming Home



(REPEAT CHORUS)



(BRIDGE)

Old Man Tell Me Are There Fears

Do You Measure Life In Years

Or Is One Day All You'll Ever Know

I've Got To Know



(REPEAT CHORUS)



(CODA)

Have I Been A Good Man

Have I Tried To See The Light

Wish I May, Wish I Might

Have The Wish I Wish Tonight

Have I Been A Good Man
