A man died today, not a man but a legend Dale was the hero that would not stop being a hero Born with gasoline in his veins and rubber under his nails The man knew how to drive from conception In a time when hero's let us down A time when fame leads to egos and mistrust There is always one who defies the common law Never did he falter, never did he turn down the road of deceit A father, a husband, a friend, and an idol His life filled with happiness and glory Dale Earnhardt was NASCAR and NASCAR is Dale Earnhardt So lets bow our heads and thank the Great Spirit above Thank the Great Spirit for letting us be graced with Dale's presence The man may be gone, but his spirit and his legend will be forever We Will Miss You,Dale Earnhardt,1951-2001
