Country singers like me, I know you'll agree
Time changes, but life still goes on
I'll bet you dear brother, one time or another
We've all done a Jimmy Rogers song
I'm thinking of you tonight, old pal
And wishing that you were near
I'm dreaming of the times and the days gone by
When you filled my heart with cheer
I remember the nights when all alone
We sang sweet Adeline
No other face can take your place
In my heart, old pal of mine
Oldie, oldie, oldie
Oldie, oldie, oldie
Yes, the old pals are always the best, you see
New friends you can find every day
But they can't fill the places or ever be
Like the old pals of yesterday
I'm wondering where you are tonight
And if you ever think of me
It would make my weary heart so light, sweetheart
I'd like to see your face again to see
But in my checkered life I find
Nothing comes right, it seems
But you'll always be a pal of mine
Though it may be only in dreams
Yes, the old pals are always the best, you see
New friends you can find every day
But they can't fill the places or ever be
Like the old pals of yesterday
Yes, the old pals are always the best, you see
New friends you can find every day
But they can't fill the places or ever be
Like the old pals of yesterday
Oldie, oldie, oldie
Oldie, oldie, oldie
