Talking Old Soldiers (Explicit)

Talking Old Soldiers - Bettye Lavette

Written by：Elton John

While hello he said

Can I buy you another glass of wine my dear

Thank you son that's kind of you

It's so nice to know somebody cares

These days there's so much going on

I don't think nobody really wants to know

I may reach just an ol' has been a some

But I know how it feels to grow old

Yeah I guess that's right

You can find me here most in a night

Just looking round the rooms

Staring at the walls and the lights

It's funny I remember oh five or six years ago I'd say

I'd stand right here at this bar

With my friends who passed away

And drink three times the wine I can drink today

Yup I know how it feels to grow old

I know what they're saying son

There goes an old frenzy broad again

Well I may be mad at that but I've seen enough

To make a young man go out his brains

How the hell do they know

What it's like to have a graveyard as a friend

Cause that's where they all are boy all of them

It don't seem likely I'll have those kinds of friends again

I showed you hate you have to go

But it's been great talking to you

And how about see you

The next time you're passing through

You know it it's like I saying

There's so much going on

I don't really think nobody wants to know

But you keep well my friend

And don't give another thought on me

Cause I'm gonna ignore all the rest

I've got my memories
