It s so nice to see 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 Did she mention my name just in passing And when the morning came, do you remember did she drop a name or two Is the home team still on fire, do they still win all the games And by the way, did she mention my name Is the landlord still a loser, do the 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 lookin' in her eyes seem far away Is the old roof still leaking when the late snow turns to rain And by the way, did she mention my name Did she mention my name just in passing And looking at the rain, do you remember if she dropped a name or two Won't you say hello from someone, they'll be no need to explain And by the way, did she mention my name
