I met a man I knew from years ago
He shook me by the hand and said hello
But would you believe me him I did not know
Years changes one and years changed Timmy Joe.
I felt embarrassed had to ask his name
I'm Tim Joe Ryan says he the very same
Timmy who was your pal in school going time
When we were young long years before our prime.
The man had changed in school days he was small
It seemed he'd not grow over five foot tall
But here he was now standing six foot four
Eight inches towering over me or more.
In school going days I'd four inches on him
He was the smallest in the class room Tim
He was so small so very small indeed
That the nickname we put on him was the weed.
Just goes to show how can one ever say
That the smallest boy in your class room today
Could not one day be the tallest one of all
And like Timmy Joe stand over six foot tall.
