Well he stomped with his feet
And he clapped with his hands
He summoned all of his joy when he laughed
It suffered all of his joy when he cried
[Chorus]
And sometimes when he got into talking
Man he could rattle on and on
He was a good man and now he's gone
Well in war he was a tiger
When it was over like a dove
He summoned all of his strength in the climb
It suffered all of his strength in the fall
[Chorus]
He put his trust in a higher power
He held his power like a holy grail
He summoned all of his faith in the lifting
It suffered all of his faith fail
His heart was stronger than a heavy metal bullet
And that's why I dedicate this song
He was a good man and now he's gone
His heart was stronger than a heavy metal bullet
And that's why I dedicate this song
He was a good man and now he's gone
