He Won't Ever Be Gone

Got the news this morning It would be a tough day Someone's so much larger than life Can't believe he could pass away When it comes to country music he's the world And it wouldn't be all it is without his word And He won't ever be gone His songs live on A fugutive and a brand new man Mama tried to understand Left us a lifetime of songs And He won't ever be gone We were friends right from the start And we shared some high times I would sing some songs he wrote And he would sing a few of my own Music made us brothers 'til the end Not a day goes by that I don't miss him And He won't ever be gone His songs live on Ramblin' fever and the way I am Blue collar blues for the working man We'll be singin it back home from now on And He won't ever be gone And He won't ever be gone His songs live on A fugutive and a brand new man Mama tried to understand Left us a lifetime of songs And He won't ever be gone We'll be singin it back home from now on And He won't ever be gone
