Did She Mention My Name                           
(Gordon Lightfoot)                                
                                                  
It's so nice to meet an old friend and pass the   
time of day, And talk about the home town 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 if she     
dropped 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 his 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 look 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, there'll be no need to explain,     
And by the way, did she mention my name?
