That Old Song
© Joyce Marion Cobbs MacLean
That old song is many years old
Yet that old song has never been sold
That old song lies in every heart
For that old song is a work of art.
That old song it has no tune
Yet that old song can sure fill a room
That Old song has only one line
But that old song can really mark time
That old song is always a hit
To that old song we walk and we sit
That old song can turn the hair grey
But that old song is here to stay.
That old song will go on and on
As that old song each new day is born
That old song will never die
For that old song is a new baby's cry.
