I was thinking about my cousin Wayne and decided to write a song about him. This is a very quick one take recording. Lyrics, Vocal & Guitar by Tony.
HIS MAMA DIED AT CHILD BIRTH
HIS DADDY DIED IN WORLD WAR II…….
BORN HARD OF HEARING
HE HAD A PROBLEM OR TWO
RAISED BY HIS GRAND PARENTS
THAT DIDN'T SHOW MUCH LOVE…….
TIMES THEY WERE HARD
HAD SOME HELP FROM GOD ABOVE
(CHORUS)
COUSIN WAYNE….COUSIN WAYNE
HOW I MISS COUSIN WAYNE…….
ALWAYS JOKIN'….ALWAYS SMILIN'
LIFE NEVER BROUGHT HIM DOWN
LIFE NEVER BROUGHT HIM DOWN
BEING FIVE YEARS OLDER
I LOOKED UP TO HIM……..
LOVED THEM FAST CARS
BURNIN' THEM TIRES
HAD A LITTLE RED TRUCK
ALWAYS HOTRODIN'………
EVERY FRIDAY NIGHT
HE WAS DRAG RACIN'
(REPEAT CHORUS)
WHEN GRANDMA GAVE UP
HE MET A GIRL FROM BULL MOUNTAIN…….
LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT
TIME TO PARK THE LITTLE RED TRUCK
THEY WERE SOON MARRIED
BOTH ARE GONE NOW
THE BULL MOUNTAIN GIRL
ROCKED WAYNE'S WORLD
(REPEAT CHORUS )
