about

This is a song I wrote after hearing that Rob Tyner from the MC5 had passed away.

lyrics

I sat frustrated in my room about 22, still kind of shaken by the news.
I never knew ya, but I think that you knew me
and these notes I write, with respect and sincerity

And brother, though you're gone, know the spirit still lives on
A flame burns deep, inside of me
And Brothers Black to Comm, from East L.A. to Vietnam
Throw down your guns, you're singing with me

Raise our glasses high, let our voices fill the sky
Hey god - we're gonna try - you'll see
To be the best damn human beings that we can be
And if tomorrow never comes, we got tonight to have some fun
We'll dance and show our love to thee
Rob you ain't dead, man, you're still inside of me.
