Old Pal Why Dont You Answer Me?
Year 1920
Words by Sam M. Lewis and Joe Young Music by M. K. Jerome Waterson, Berlin and Snyder Co. Strand Theatre Building Broadway at 47th Street New York, NY. |
First Verse Old pal old gal, You left me all alone; Old pal old gal, I'm just a rolling stone. Shadows that come stealing, Thru the weary night; Always find me kneeling, In the candle light. Second Verse Old pal, old gal, The nights are long and drear; Old pal old gal, Each day seems like a year. No one left to meet me, After all I've toiled; No one here to greet me, It's an empty world. Chorus The long night through I pray to you, Old pal why don't you answer me? My arms embrace an empty space, The arms that held you tenderly. If you can hear my pray'r away up there; Old pal why don't you answer me? CLICK HERE TO PLAY THIS SONG |
