LEADER OF THE BAND=20
(aka LEADER OF THE SBS BAND)
Dan Fogelberg
He was a man, alone and wild
A North Carolina son
His hands were meant for different work
And his heart was full of fun
He left his home and started using SBS his way
And he gave to us a gift
I know we never can repay
A quiet man of knowledge
Denied a simpler road
He tried to be a truck driver once
But those curves he couldn't hold
He earned his love through discipline
A thund'ring velvet hand
His gentle means of sculpting scripts
Took me years to understand
The leader of the (SBS) band
Steps down, but his eyes are growing strong
And his blood runs thru' my posts each day
And my soul sings out his song
My life has been a poor attempt to imitate the man
I'm just a living legacy
To the leader of the band
All our lives are different
But we each have heard the call
From Florida to LA, from Canada and beyond
No matter where we find ourselves
We work 'cause we know it well
Living out this life we've chose
And come to raise some h*ll.
Grey, I thank you for the music
And your stories of the road
I thank you for the freedom
When it comes my time to go
I thank you for the kindness
And the times when you got tough
And Gramps I don't think I said
"I love you" near enough
The leader of the (SBS) band
Steps down, but his eyes are growing strong
And his blood runs thru' my posts each day
And my soul sings out his song
My life has been a poor attempt to imitate the man
I'm just a living legacy
To the leader of the band
-- Kevin Weilbacher [SBS-MVP]"The days pass by so quickly now, the =
nights are seldom long"
