[Spoken Intro]
This song was written by our friend, Keith Gattis
An amazing songwriter, singer, and guitar slinger
We lost Keith way too soon
He wrote this song with another Texas legend, Guy Clark
Keith, we miss you, brother
But I know we're gonna see you again someday
[Verse 1]
He worse a sweat-stained open road Stetson hat
A domino king from way on back
Jack of all trades with an old jon boat
And he spent his last days just makin' it float
And every now and then, he'd pick me up
When he knew the water wouldn't be too rough
He was known for never sayin' too much
We'd get in that boat and he'd open right up
[Chorus]
He said, "The war took my brother
The good Lord took my mother
And the years, well, I don't know where they all went
Until that roll is called up yonder
All I can do is wonder
If I even did enough to make a dent
But I made a few good friends
And I always paid my rent"
