letra de the old man in the window - sammy walker
[chorus]
the old man in the window plays his cello for you
at the old folks’ home down on 8th avenue
he come here from poland back in ’22
a stowaway, an uncle, a new york rendezvous
the old man in the window, his hands ain’t so good
his bow doesn’t flow like it used to could
the old man in the window, the old man, the jew
just wants to play his cello for you
[verse 1]
the old man in the window looks out at the view
and hops on a streetcar on 8th avenue
hand in hand by the river with his sweet marie
and maybe a kiss by the old maple tree
the old man in the window, dressed fit to k!ll
a dance to the victrola is the day’s greatest thrill
the old man in the window drifts off to sleep
memories of good times his always to keep
[verse 2]
the old man in the window still has his self-pride
as he dreams of hemlock in the old countryside
with his sister and cousin, they play on the ridge
and skip stones cross the water from the old wooden bridge
the old man in the window, he’s played with the best
new york philharmonic, duets in budapest
the old man in the window, how soon they forget
old man in the window – like a prop on the set
[chorus]
the old man in the window plays his cello for you
at the old folks’ home down on 8th avenue
he come here from poland back in ’22
a stowaway, an uncle, a new york rendezvous
the old man in the window, his hands ain’t so good
his bow doesn’t flow like it used to could
the old man in the window, the old man, the jew
just wants to play his cello for you
