This is dedicated to a stranger I stopped to help
I did not know him and I didn't even realise he was siick
I just knew he needed help
So this is dedicated to a brave man with family and friends
Who love him fight on Franco. A privilege to be able to help you.
As I went for my drive today I saw a man along the way
On a lamppost he was he was lent head down
And his back was bent.
I stopped to help as he was alone and he ask me toI
Take him home
So on our journey we had a talk and he told me why
He couldn't walk.
He told me a thing that had no answer you see this kind
Man has got cancer.
I spoke to him and I hope I did right by telling him he had
To fight.
We arrived at his house and knocked on the door
And met his wonderful wife who told me more.
You see this man's name is Franco a husband and dad
And the best friend a person can have.
I listened then said my goodbyes trying to hide
The tears in my eyes.
Live is so cruel and sometimes so wrong but you be like
Franco fight and be strong.
