D E A D E A
And that old time feelin' goes sneakin' down the hall,
D E A D A E
Like an old gray cat in winter, keepin' close to the wall.
D E A D E A
And that old time feelin' comes stumblin' up the street,
D E A D A E
Like an old salesman kickin' the papers from his feet.
[Verse 2]
D E A D E A
And that old time feelin' draws circles around the block,
D E A D A E
Like old women with no children, holdin' hands with the clock.
D E A D E A
And that old time feelin' falls on it's face in the park,
D E A D A E
Like an old wino prayin' he can make it 'till it's dark.
[Verse 3]
D E A D E A
And that old time feelin' comes and goes in the rain,
D E A D A E
Like an old man with his checkers, dyin' to find a game.
D E A D E A
And that old time feelin' plays for beer in bars,
D E A D A E
Like an old blues-time picker who don't recall who you are.
[Verse 4]
D E A D E A
And that old time feelin' limps through the night on a crutch,
D E A D A E
Like an old soldier wonderin' if he's paid too much.
D E A D E A
And that old time feelin' rocks and spits and cries,
D E A D A E
Like an old lover rememberin' the girl with the clear blue eyes.
[Verse 5]
D E A D E A
And that old time feelin' goes sneakin' down the hall,
D E A D E A
Like an old gray cat in winter, keepin' close to the wall.
