Mr. Larkin

I work in the kitchen
 At an old folk's home
 I do my best but i too am getting on
 I do the dishes but lately i been dropping plates
 See as i get older my hands are starting to shake
 So mr larkin
 See i got to hold this job
 Did you misspeak when you told me
 She was all but gone
 Mr larkin
 Dock me my one week's pay
 But don't ask me to leave
 I can't afford that today
 Ten years ago my wife took sick
 So i brought her here
 My job i quit
 I started working for the home
 So i could be by her everyday
 We couldn't afford the cost in any other way
 So
 So mr larkin see i
 I know she know who i am
 Every now and then she'll squeeze my hand
 It's what i live for it's why she don't die
 So mr larkin won't you won't you give me this try
 I walk to work on route 27
 I see the same cars pass everyday
 And through all this new england weather
 You know never once have i been late
 So mr larkin see i
 I know she know who i am
 Every now and then she'll squeeze my hand
 It's what i live for it's why she don't die
 So mr larkin won't you won't you give me this try
 I see the argument you're makin'
 And i understand you got to do your job
 And believe me i know she's turning angel
 But you see this woman is all I got
 So mr larkin see i
 I know she know who i am
 Every now and then she'll squeeze my hand
 It's what i live for it's why she don't die
 So mr larkin won't you won't you give me this try
 Won't you give me this try
 Won't you give me this try
