Видео: Harry Chapin - Old Folkie

He`s the man with the banjo and the 12-string guitar.
And he`s singing us the songs that tell us who we are.
When you look in his eyes you know that somebody`s in there.
Yeah, he knows where we`re going and where we been
And how the fog is gettin` thicker where the future should begin.
When you look at his life you know that he`s really been there.

Still, what is the name that they`re calling that man?
What is the name that they`re calling that man?
You know, it`s always the "Old Folkie"
They say he`s always bleedin`
But whenever somebody`s needing him,
He`s the one who cares.
It`s always the "Old Folkie"
Whenever somethin`s burning,
Or a lesson needs some learning,
Or a tide that needs some turning,
To a better world somewhere,
Yeah, the "Old Folkie`s" there.

Yeah, for forty years now he`s been pushin` on.
Carrying the dream `cause Woody`s long gone.
He`s the last voice singing that "Bound for Glory" song.
And if you never seen him you might take a look
He`s the man who put the meaning in the music book.
Yeah, the world may be tired but Pete`s still going strong.

Still, what is the name that they`re calling that man?
What is the name that they`re calling that man?
You know, it`s always the "Old Folkie"
They say he`s always bleedin`
But whenever somebody`s needing him,
He`s the one who cares
It`s always the "Old Folkie:`
Whenever somethin`s burning,
Or a lesson needs some learning,
Or a tide that needs some turning,
To a better world somewhere, Yeah, the "Old Folkie`s" there.

What is the name that they`re calling that man?
What is the name that they`re calling that man?
You know, it`s always the "Old Folkie"
Singing for some hopeless cause.
Shouting at the mountain top
The wind is his only applause.
It`s always the "Old Folkie"
We don`t know what we`re missing
`Cause nobody ever listens,
`Cept the lovers as they`re kissin`
Oh, he`s singing for them somewhere.
Yeah, the "Old Folkie`s" there. The"Old Folkie`s" there.
