It's so nice to meet an old friend

 5  -5   5    -5  6  -6

and pass the time of day

 -8  -8  -8-8   7   7  -7
And talk about the hometown

6 -6 -6    6    -5 5

a million miles away

 6  7   8    8   8  -8  -8 7
Is the ice still in the river?

 5  5   -5   5     -5    6  -6

Are the old folks still the same?

 -6 -8  7  -7   6    6   -6 6   -5  5
And by the way, did she mention my name?

 5  -5   -6 -6  7   -7   -6  -6  -6  6

Did she mention my name just in passing?

 8   8    8   8  8    8
And when the morning came,

 7  7   7 7 7    7  7     7    7 -7   7  -8

do you remember if she dropped a name or two?

 6  7   8    8    8    -8 -8 7
Is the home team still on fire?

 5  5   -5   5     -5    6  -6

Do they still win all the games?

-6 -8   7  -7    6   6  -6 6   -5   5
And by the way, did she mention my name?
