They're sending the old man home

Back where the buffalo roam

Out in the pacific

They say he was the best

Now he's in his civies

Heading home like all the rest

He'll never forget rosa lee

Or sleepless nights

He fought upon the sea

He'll only have the memories

Or great books by james jones

Cause they're sending

The old man home

Faraway faraway

Faraway faraway

Another life so very far away

They'll tear down the officers clubs

And write off the overdue subs

So let's drink to their memories

Our heroes and our pals

To those crazy navy flyers

To those swell hawaiian gals

The sailors will dance in the street

Then they'll mothball

The whole damn fleet

We'll only have the picture books

Of land and sea and foam

Cause they're sending

The old man home

He'll only have his memories

Or great books by james jones

Cause they're sending

The old man home
