Angela Kaset - Welcome to the Golden Years Lyrics

I'm knockin' on your door now
May I come in
If you don't feel like company
I'll come back again
My name is mildred
I been here four years October
I hope I can cheer you up and make
You feel at home here

[Chorus]
Welcome to the golden years
I hope you have a nice stay here
You get your medicines and a balanced diet
A lot of peace and a lot of quiet
And the doctor is always near
Welcome to the golden years

Now I'm not one to gossip
But here comes Mrs. Flynn
I think she stole my bible
Now isn't that a sin
Have you met Mrs. Montgomery
She's two doors down the hall
It's been six months since
Her children visited or called

[Chorus]

Look out for Mr. Pritchett
He never says a word
But his fingers do the talking
At least that's what I heard
And poor old Annie Goosley
She's crazy as can be
Says her children sold the
Family home and put her cat to sleep

[Bridge]
Mama wake me from this dream
Long white halls, bare white walls
An antiseptic scene
Not what I always had in mind
Rockin' chair and silver hair
Grand children in the sunshine

[Chorus]
