Today I heard the Possum died
He’d break down a chord on his marc P45
Step up to the mike, The crowd they come alive
And he sings all of his great songs, He put an all-night show to the test
Sounds like white lightening, the Grand tour, once you’ve had the best
For so many years he’d been number 1
Few can say they’ve done the things he’s done
He’d bring a tear to your eye when he started to sing glory
Even made country greats whip their eyes
But today I heard the Possum pa**ed away
Today I heard the Possum pa**ed away
Country music it won’t ever be the same
I’m still doing time, the bar tender’s blues
They’ll never be another to fill his shoes
But today I heard the Possum pa**ed away
Today I heard the Possum pa**ed away
Country music No it won’t ever be the same
He stopped loving her today was his greatest of all
He’s had …….
You know tonight George is watching all of his fans
From that old window up above
We miss you George….
