On March 18th some time ago
A part of music past had to go
His legacy of songs
And his character be
Forever carried on in memory
Though complex and mysterious as was in his ways
Had his share of troubles
With termoil of emotional displays
Tall and lanky
But witty and of charm
At times polite and gentlemanly
But cross his path
You might of been in for harm
In song and lyrics
You could come to somewhat understand
Of the story of him and and of his band
He went home to Heaven in March
And may he at last found peace
To be healed and have his spirit
Be of PositiveMinded release
And so the time has passed
Hard to believe he is gone
Remember how you want to of him
Remember Papa John...
