Hello, Rudy
Well, Hello Harry
It´s so nice to be back home where I belong
You are looking swell, Manny
I can tell, Danny
You´re still glowin´, you´re still crowin´
You´re still goin´ strong
I feel the room swayin´
For the band´s playin´
One of my old fav´rite songs from ´way back when
So, bridge that gap, fellas
Find me an empty lap, fellas
Dolly´ll never go away again

[Waiters:]
