EDDIE WALKER
Won't you smile,
You look so shocked,
Put the name tag on your smock,
We've come to see ya, Eddie Walker
We may pack a little tight,
The girl up front says "it's all right,
and look there's more of us,
still getting' off the bus,
we wish you could come back home with us."
Eddie Walker, this is your life
This one's you,
When you were small,
And you're learning how to walk,
they pick you up and you keep falling down
There you are with Aunt Louise,
Bouncing on her knees,
Remember all those trees behind the garden,
They're gone.
They all got cut down when she died.
Eddie Walker, this is your life,
You never had a son or a wife,
You sure had a hell of a time
Eddie Walker this is your life
This is you and MaryJo
She couldn't come, she says hello,
No Eddie Walker she doesn't hate your guts,
It's just the whole thing shook her up,
How they've picked you up and you kept falling down.
Eddie Walker,
This is your life,
Eddie Walker,
This is your life,
You never had a coat or a tie,
You never had a reason to cry
This whole stack and all of these,
Are your semester overseas,
We're gonna leave you, Eddie Walker
