It's 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 in the river are the old folks still the same
And by the way did she mention my name
And by the way did she mention my name just in passing
And when the morning came do you remember if she dropped a name or two
Is the homesteam still on fire do they still win all their games
And by the way did she mention my name
[ harmonica ]
Is the landlord still a loser do his signs hang on the wall
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
Is the old roof still leaking when the lakes all turn to rain
And by the way did she mention my name
[ harmonica ]
Did she mention my name...
And by the way did she mention my name
