Touch of Gray
A couple of bands disbanded and found each other
Forming The Grateful Dead in 1965
Their rock, blues, jazz, gospel, reggae kept them alive
For thirty years,
although they lost three keyboardists.
My favorite song of theirs is Touch of Grey
I will get by, I will survive, which is what they did
And they survived in spite of many hardships
They were survivors!
“the touch of grey kinda suits you anyway”
This meant nothing when I was a young deadhead.
Now that I am older, I cherish this line also.
I may be gray, but I will survive.
I will get by. I will survive.
