cool obituary

Singer:buddy brown

he was just about 90

he lived a long life

a bad hip and arthritis kept him up every night

so he took to a mountain on saturday morn

knew that this was the day that he'd be reborn

he was trackin' a grizzly

there was sign everywhere

knew he didn't stand a chance but he didn't seem to care

he was gonna go down in one hell of a fight

so he lit a cigar and gathered all of his might

when that bear stood up out of the cave he was in

most men would hightail but he stood there and grinned

got off one single shot

man it must have been scary

he's gone but he left a cool obituary

all they found was a billfold and an old stetson hat

half a cigar and a rocky mountain map

his.50 cal hawken he took everywhere

even to his last fight with an old grizzly bear

when that bear stood up out of the cave he was in

most men would hightail but he stood there and grinned

got off one single shot

man it must have been scary

he's gone but he left a cool obituary

they found a note in his jacket tossed off to the side

said his best friend was killed when he was 75

by a dark grizzly bear that weighed six hundred pounds

the same one that lay dead next to him on the ground

when that bear stood up out of the cave he was in

most men would hightail but he stood there and grinned

got off one single shot

man it must have been scary

he's gone but he left a cool obituary
