A Sight For Sore Eyes lyrics

hey sight for sore eyes it`s a long time no see
workin hard hardly workin hey man you know me
water under the bridge didya see my new car
well it`s bought and it`s payed for parked outside of the bar

and hey barkeeper what`s keepin you keep pourin drinks
for all these palookas hey you know what i thinks
that we toast to the old days and dimagio too
and old drysdale and mantle whitey ford and to you

no the old gang ain`t around everyone has left town
`cept for thumm and giardina said they just might be down
oh half drunk all the time and i`m all drunk the rest
yea monk`s till the champion but i`m the best

i guess you heard about nash he was killed in a crash
hell that must of been two or three years ago now
yea he spun out and he rolled he hit a telephone pole
and he died with the radio on
no she`s married and with a kid finally split up with sid
he`s up north for a nickle`s worth for armed robbery

hey i`ll play you some pin ball hell you ain`t got a chance
well then go on over and ask her to dance
