Слова і музика: Ron Cahute

Sittin' all alone

Just listening to the breeze

Oh I can still remember that music

I never knew his name

Cause he never told me

And I never thought to ask him

But he was my friend

Even though we never spoke much

He talked to me with his music

And I knew that he was

As gentle as the breeze

Cause when he played he just made you feel good

Playin' his accordion

Under that tree

I remember everybody would go there

And all the little children

Sittin' all around him

Watching and listening to him play

Singing all the songs they knew

And if they didn't know, then

They'd still sing, but that's alright

You see he didn't mind

Cause he lived all alone

And he loved when we'd sit there and listen

Приспів:

I'm the accordion man

And I play for the children

As they listen a-while to the music

That I'm playin' for them

And if they like the song

Soon they all start to sing along

It's the smiles on their faces

That matters to me

They don't care if I play

In the same melodies

I just play what I can

I'm the accordion man

The years have gone by

And the children are all grown up

And they don't go there anymore

The place where he stayed

And the songs that he played

And the sound of the laughter are all gone now

But every now and then

I sit back and I close my eyes

And I can still hear the music

And how the children would laugh

And sing as he played

And I smile cause it still makes me feel good
