New to town
Nothing to do
Sittin' on this couch
Wondering what to do
So, I decided
Then and there
To get up
And go somewhere
So, I went to a
Small town
Found a bar
On main Ave
And I walked
Into the bar
And an old man was
Sittin' a chair
And he turned around
And looked at me
And said boy
Why don't ya come here
And take a seat
New to town
Nothing to do
Who'd a known
I'd be friends with you
An 83-year-old man
A retired veteran
We'd met there
Every week
And share a
Few drinks
And talk about
Our weeks
And where we'd
Rather be
Until one day
I walked in by myself
And I asked the lady
Serving drinks where he might be
And she said
I thought you heard
But he passed away
A few days ago
New to town
Nothing to do
Who'd a known
I'd be friends with you
An 83-year-old man
A retired veteran
