I thought this was a good tribute to the Godfather of Soul

TO THE MEMORY OF JAMES BROWN

*******************
His soul filled our ears as we tapped both our feet
His dress, his moves, his style just so neat
So James Brown now joins the ultimate band
In "ROCK & ROLL" heaven, the final stand

For 73 years he shared all of his soul
along with raw energy within his control
He rocked the joint always beyond compare
his " I FEEL GOOD " was always there

The microphone and stand his favorite tool
the cape on his shoulders was just too cool
the depth of feeling, and music inside
we will always remember his soulful stride

THE GODFATHER OF SOUL, was his recognized tag
now where he has gone, "PAPA'S GOT A BRAND NEW BAG"
his real gospel heart, is where it belongs
in SOUL heaven above singing those songs

So James takes the "NIGHT TRAIN" and is singing out loud
as he did in 68 singing I'm Black and I'm Proud
his soul and his song fill the heavens with feeling
and leave the angels and god rockin' & reelin'

So JAMES I would sing "PLEASE, PLEASE, DON'T GO
but an angel holds your cape for the very next show
a concert in the sky, where your soul still abides
and always that feeling from deep down inside

Goodbye Mr. Brown, so rock on with the band
in ROCK & ROLL heaven where the music is grand
so while your there Mr. SOUL, give all that listens a deal
to a song from within that is very much real

And these words I say as we part for awhile
Thank you GODFATHER, for your fabulous style
Your soul filled my heart, and my ears with your sound
Rock on with the angels, goodbye MR. BROWN
