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…. *** Thanks Chizyuka for these lyrics
