Enter the Haggis The Barfly Lyrics:
I met an old man one night in a bar
Sitting alone
The way men his age always are
His movements were slow
Didn't speak very well
But every old man has a story to tell
Every old man has a story to tell

He lived by the book
Went to church every day
But his wife left him young
With two daughters and bills to pay
He worked himself hard
And the years flickered past
His girls kept him young but they grew up so fast
His girls kept him young but they grew up so fast

Prodigal faith always felt second best
She turned seventeen
She took her coat and her camera
And headed west
It broke her dad's heart
But as he likes to say

With enough time apart even faith fades away
With enough time apart even faith fades away

(interlude)

Jenny met Ray in his last days ashore
They married in May
And that August he joined the war
He said Jenny don't cry
I'll be home in the fall
So she held her head high and said nothing at all
So she held her head high and said nothing at all

Then he got in a plane
Took it up in the air
It never came down
For all she knows its still flying around up there
Then Jenny went wrong
And the last that I heard
It's been seven years long since she uttered a word
Seven years gone since she uttered a word

Now her father just sits all alone at the bar
He orders his drinks
And smokes cigarettes
He knows he can't afford
He's got no regrets
Says he's doing quite well
But every old man has a story to tell
Every old man has a story to tell
