My Rock and Roll Friend - Gone
They broke the news
to me today
That my friend - who loved rock and roll
had left this mortal coil
We used to burst into song
when we saw each other
He loved screaming guitars
and played one himself
He died in his forties
He wasn't watching his health carefully
which is something we all should do
I remember the times
he shared his food with me
He was generous in that way
My rock and roll friend is gone
Now I'll have to sing metal tunes by myself
We all we face the grim reaper
but his passing came too soon, too soon
I will think of him
When I hear rock and roll from my radio
His memory will live on with his friends and loved ones
Another rocker gone....
