Have You Seen Sue

He smiled like any other day as I walked into his room

He said hey son, how ya doin, have you seen Sue?

It's funny what's important when his memory starts to roam

And mostly he just talks of going home

Yesterday he took five bullets backs in Vietnam

This morning over coffee he don't know who I am

By the son have you seen Sue is she still all alone

But mostly he just talks of going home

So I drive him down the back roads in his old pickup truck

We turn down Georgia Avenue by the house where he grew up

And every time we pass Jacks Cafe big ol' tears fill up his eyes

He says that's where I met Sue and asked her to be my wife

You can take me back now I know you've got things to do

I didn't catch your name son how do I know you

It breaks my heart to watch my Dad as his mind comes and goes

But he's all there when he talks of going home

So I drive him down the back roads in his old pickup truck

We turn down Georgia Avenue by the house where he grew up

And every time we pass Jacks Cafe tears fill up his eyes

He says that's where I met my Sue and asked her to be my wife

He always asks me, have you seen Sue
