As we sat to watch the race.
We all wondered who’d get 1st place.
25 laps were left to go.
An 18-car pile up would stop the show.
After all the drivers were found okay.
The race started on its way.
The battle between Waltrip and Jr. were fine.
But, who'd get 1st at the finish line.
It was Waltrip with the win.
But, Earnhardt Sr the wall he went in.
Earnhardt Sr he'd be okay
We knew that is what they'd say.
The 7 O'clock news would change all that.
For the bad news we all sat.
The NASCAR President came to say
Dale Earnhardt Sr had passed away.
NASCAR fans in shock we'd all be.
For we all loved Dale Sr you see.
This can't happen to theNASCAR team.
This has to bea bad dream.
In the morning papers would be the news
That a NASCAR hero we would lose.
We loved the Number 3 you see.
In racing heaven is were he'll be..
