Dead mans sandals (c) Bug 2015

- Lyrics and music by Bug

Dead mans sandals
Dead mans sandals
Dead mans sandals
Gona walk you right out of here

My daddy has a gone
My daddy has a gone
My daddy hs a gone
I prayed to god they open the gates for you

My daddy was a good man
My dady was a good man
My daddy was a good man
Helped many so now god please help him

He's gone to met his maker
He's gone to meet his maker
He's gone to meet his maker
He's gone to be with my mama too

He was born in 1929
He was born in 1929
He was born In 1929
But now he's run out of his time

if you don't like it change it
If you don't like it change it
If you don't like it change it
Was the words that he would say

He helped A
Man he shouldn't have
He helped a man he should have
He'd help a man he should have
But he'd help him that was just his way

He Raised 200 grand for charity
He Raised 200 grand for charity
He Raided 200 grand for charity
Not a penny he would charge that was his way

Was taken by a con man
Was taken by a conmam
Was taken by a conman
Not every mans word is his bond

I cleared his room of everything
I cleared his room of everything
I clearsed his room of everything
To just three bags of things to stay

2015 was his last year
2015 was his last year
2015 was his last year
I will see him on the other side

Thanks Guys, just recorded little Bugs tribute today, a reading and some guitar playing to play at the funeral.

It's sweet.

Truly sorry to hear of your Dad's passing.

Wishing you well in the tough days ahead.

Thanks Guys for listening.
Thanks Jim, yes the words are very true
and he was a good man. Unfortunately
once my mum went with cancers ,it went a bit Pete tong
And he met the wrong people who screwed him over.
Lied and cheated him out of most things. Made him remortgage his house and give
them that too. Be careful who your parents meet when they get old.

I might try and wifi the a piece of instrumental music for him for his funeral.

But under all that went on he was a good man.
