In Memory of Stevie Ray Vaughn
Written August 29, 1990

 


Dead at Thirty-Five

Five more souls on Heaven's rolls
Heaven must be rockin' tonight
 

Five more souls on Heaven's rolls
Heaven must be rockin' tonight
 

Five more souls on Heaven's rolls
Heaven must be rockin' tonight

Thank God we have your music
Thank God we had your love
You can thank Him now in person
Now that you have gone Above
 

Did you give our best to Jimi?
Is John Lennon doing fine?
Has Bob Marley been reborn yet?
When will we all cross the line?

Five more souls on Heaven's rolls
Heaven must be rockin' tonight
 

Five more souls on Heaven's rolls
Heaven must be rockin' tonight

And those of us left here
Are drowning in our tears
Why did you get on that deadly flight
 

Stevie Ray, we'll miss you
Hope it was a painless death
Hope you never knew what hit you
Hope you laughed 
With your last breath
