[00:00.00] Lyrics：Jimmy Buffett Music：Jimmy Buffett
[00:08.43]They're sendin' the old man home
[00:16.47]Back where the buffalo roam
[00:24.24]Out in the Pacific, they say he was the best
[00:31.77]Now he's in his 'civies', headin' home like all the rest
[00:39.24]He'll never forget Rosa Lee
[00:47.13]Or sleepless nights he fought upon the sea
[00:54.81]He'll only have the memories
[00:58.80]Or great books by James Jones
[01:02.19]'Cause they're sendin' the old man home
[01:10.68]Faraway (Faraway)
[01:12.60]Faraway (Faraway)
[01:18.60]Another life so very far away
[01:57.33]They'll tear down the officers clubs
[02:05.73]And write off the overdue subs
[02:13.50]So let's drink to their memories
[02:17.43]Our heroes and our pals
[02:20.85]To those crazy Navy flyers
[02:24.72]To those swell Hawaiian gals
[02:29.22]The sailors will dance in the street
[02:36.30]Then they'll mothball the whole damn fleet
[02:44.94]We'll only have the picture books
[02:48.90]Of land, and sea, and foam
[02:52.26]'Cause they're sendin' the old man home
[03:00.45]He'll only have his memories
[03:04.65]Or great books by James Jones
[03:08.10]'Cause they're sendin' the old man home

Lyrics：Jimmy Buffett Music：Jimmy Buffett
They're sendin' the old man home
Back where the buffalo roam
Out in the Pacific, they say he was the best
Now he's in his 'civies', headin' home like all the rest
He'll never forget Rosa Lee
Or sleepless nights he fought upon the sea
He'll only have the memories
Or great books by James Jones
'Cause they're sendin' the old man home
Faraway (Faraway)
Faraway (Faraway)
Another life so very far away
They'll tear down the officers clubs
And write off the overdue subs
So let's drink to their memories
Our heroes and our pals
To those crazy Navy flyers
To those swell Hawaiian gals
The sailors will dance in the street
Then they'll mothball the whole damn fleet
We'll only have the picture books
Of land, and sea, and foam
'Cause they're sendin' the old man home
He'll only have his memories
Or great books by James Jones
'Cause they're sendin' the old man home
