Lyrics
Well old Bill he lived across the street
Everyday he would go out to meet the old ladies in the town
He was nearly ninety three
Seen two wars lost Margorie Twenty years ago
Oh remember me to the world
Oh remember me to the world
Ol' Bill he had one brother left alive
He hadn't seen him since sixty-five
And he wouldn't know him now
He looks at me with his one good eye
And says man oh man oh man I'm tired
And you're the only one I've got
Oh remember me to the world
Oh remember me to the world
Chorus
And we'll meet again on a sunny day
On a sunny afternoon
And we'll singalong to our favorite songs
Singin Vera's wartime tune
I don't know how and I don't know when
But I'm sure we'll meet again
I know it now like I knew it then you're my friend
Remember me to the world
Oh remember me to the world
Bill your daughter Maureen called for you
Said she'll bring round new shoes
Do you wear your old ones still
Bill you know we're right here at number two
And if there's anything we can do you know we surely will
Oh I'll remember you to the world
Oh I'll remember you to the world
Chorus
Oh oh remember me to the world
