Hi friends,

I wrote this song in memory of our late great friend(old has been) Tom Ferry. This one brought tears to my eyes as I rymned it out to Neil Youngs "Old Man" song.

Feel free to download the song and sing/read it as it goes pretty good with the music.Stutter stretch some words and it comes off quite nicely.I was very pleased.

OLD MAN

Old man, had a good life
What a man, you were
Old man, had a good life
What a man, you were

Old man, had a good wife
Nice ah kids and so much more
Now ya live, in ah paradise
It makes me think of you

Stories tossed, not a cost
Gave us things, that don’t get lost
In the ar—chives, they are glossed
AZ -ah home to you

Old man, take a look at my life
I'm a lot like you.
I love shootin some pool, the whole day through
I wish I had your eyes
And your-a stroke, that’s true

Say-our-byes,ah-we’re not down
Cause ya took, away our frown
And ya meant so much to us
And we so much to you

Not about first and last
All about, the posts we passed
Gotta say, it’s been ah blast
AZ-ah home to you

Old man, take a look at my life
I'm a lot like you.
I love shootin some pool, the whole day through
I wish, I had your eyes
And your-a stroke, that’s true

Old man had a good life
What a man you were
Old man had a good life
What a man you were

You have done it again. Simply awesome!

Thank you.

Great work, i'm pretty much welling up myself.

I'm going to miss OHB, as so many others are. :(
 
Good job, RJ. After I got you in my version of Bohemian Rhapsody, you said you were swearing off writing any more songs. But this is one homage that deserved to be paid to a great man and part of the AZB family. Thank you.
