He Has Returned To Woolsthorpe

He has come home to grow old in his home country-side The old fellow from Woolsthorpe has travelled far and wide In the vast Land of Australia and the bigger World out there And of his many travels his stories he does share. With the young locals in the pub his company they enjoy With their grand-parents he went to school when he was a school-boy He tells them of the great cities he has lived in thousands of miles from home New York, London and Paris and Montreal and Rome. He never fathered children or he never had a wife Though he made love to many women in his nomadic life But he returned to Woolsthorpe where he will live his last day And in the Woolsthorpe cemetery his last remains will lay. He has returned to Woolsthorpe for to live out his last years And in the local pub at night he drinks a couple of beers And tell stories of his travels in Countries far away The young man of the fifties is now looking old and gray.
