Its so nice to meet an old friend and pass the time of day And talk about the hometown a million miles away Is the ice still on the river are the old folks still the same And by the way did she mention my name Did she mention my name just in passing And when the morning came do you remember if she cried a tear or two Is the home team still on fire do they still win all their games And by the way did she mention my name Is the landlord still a loser do his signs hang in the hall Are the young girls still as pretty in the city in the fall Does the laughter on their faces still put the sun to shame And by the way did she mention my name Did she mention my name just in passing And when the talk ran high did the look in her eyes seem far away Wont you say hello from someone therell be no need to explain And by the way did she mention my name Oh by the way did she mention my name
