"And you're every melody
With the sea tides tossin' free
Never, never holdin' back
Rock and rollers drift by"

Whether you are far or near
You're sippin' a mixed one, or simply a beer
Raise that bad boy up in the air
And through your lips, let loose a loud cheer!
In memory of Bobby D.
That is the name of my big bro
Whose life was lost exactly 18 years ago
He taught me to smile at friend or at foe
Because life is too short, but how did he know?

Bob was a huge Schenker and UFO fan
But he never heard live the sweet sounds of "the man"
Later today with my music in hand
I'll go where he is, and there I will stand
And crank him some tunes, from Lonesome Crow to Spider Man.
I know that he'll listen through the grass and the trees
Just as I'm certain his spirit lives on in me.
