I thank you for the freedom , when it came my time to go
Thank you for your kindness, and the times when you got tough
But papa I don't think I said I love you near enough
The leader of the band is tired and his eyes are growing old
But his blood runs through my instrument and his song is in my soul
My life has been a poor attempt to imitate the man
I'm just a living legacy to the leader of the band.
