Old Maid's Man
The linen suit and the hickory cane
The polished wingtip shoes
They all belong to another age
And the man does too
People think he’s all alone
He’s been around since time began
He holds a place that’s all his own
He’s the old maid’s man
The careful step up the creaking stair
The knock upon her door
He’ll kiss her cheek when he comes to call
Like years and years before
He will bring her news from town
And shift his hat from hand to hand
He knows to leave when the sun goes down
He’s the old maid’s man
He’s the old maid’s man
It’s a friendship that started long ago
Some things are better taken slow
It may be too late to change her ways
But he’ll love her all his days
He will bring her news from town
And shift his hat from hand to hand
He knows to leave when the sun goes down
He’s the old maid’s man
He’s the old maid’s man
