THESE OLD EYES HAVE SEEN IT ALL 

WRITERS CURLY PUTMAN, BUCKY JONES



The old man's hair was white and his eyes looked tired

He drank his beer at the table all alone

But he smiled when I spoke to him so I sat down for awhile

I wound up sitting there the whole night long

'Cause I could see he had a lifetime on his mind

So I just sat there and listened, I was glad to take the time.

And he said..

I saw Jimmy Rodgers yodel on the stage

And I saw Hank when the walked him to his grave

I saw a country boy from Memphis

Change the world with rock and roll

And these old eyes have seen it all.

Then he said..

I saw friends of mine or foreign soil die proud

I saw things over there, son, that I still can't talk about

I saw a crazy man named Hitler and his army rise and fall

Yeah, these old eyes have seen it all.

These old eyes have seen it all

Now the hands of time are writing on the wall

Telling me I won't have long waiting for my Jesus to call

These old eyes have seen it all.

I saw sweet Mary love me, fifty years

With a trembling hand we wiped away a tear

He said my memories of Mary are the sweetest I recall

And these old eyes have seen it all.

These old eyes have seen it all

They saw a man walk on the moon and come back home

I know it won't be long before I hear my Jesus call

These old eyes have seen it all...
