John Gilmartin |
John Gilmartin was a strong man, he was a strong man |
Till he fell down the stairs |
And got his Workman’s Comp |
Now he lives alone, he’s the oldest bachelor on the block of his Far Rockaway |
home, Rockaway |
Scared old ladies from behind the door ask, «Who is it?» |
And then don’t open up |
They know John, but you can’t be too careful |
Can’t be too careful |
Well I wouldn’t want to be here when the sun comes up |
Or the bars let out |
When the gas bill comes he makes a call to his nephews down in Port Chester and |
Rye |
Then comes the check and the promise of a visit some afternoon in the summertime |
Scared old ladies from behind the door ask, «Who is it?» |
And then don’t open up |
They know John, but you can’t be too careful |
Can’t be too careful |
Well I wouldn’t want to be here when the sun comes up |
Or the bars let out |
John Gilmartin was a strong man, he was a strong man |
Till he fell down the stairs |
