Subject: Howdy, Old Timer
My grandfather used to sing a song to me that I loved. I remember much/most? of it, but would like to locate the lyrics. I have to assume it was from his childhood in the early 1900's. The lyrics I remember are:

************************************
Howdy, old timer.
It's good to see you,
Say, how be you?
I hope that everything's OK.

Honest, old timer,
I've never seen you
Looking finer.
I hope you'll always look that way.

And if you ever need a friend,
When hard luck knocks at the door,
Just make a bet I won't forget
What a friend is really for.

And between us, old timer,
We'll make your troubles
Fade like bubbles.
I'll stick, old timer, to you.
************************************

Has anyone heard this song before, or does anyone know anything about it?

Thanks,

Dan V.
