lyrics

VERSE 1:
Monk talked about Heaven and Hawaii
And all the work you're gonna have to do
About mansions and streets of gold
Pearl floors and crystal thrones
All the people waiting there for you.
Baby Daughter said look out for Meagan
And you can find Shannon with the 2's
Horsefly didn't know what to say
But that's okay
'Cause you knew he was saying "I love you."

PRE-CHORUS:
Now Old Black's parked safely in the back yard
And all your work here is through

CHORUS:
So be still B.R. and everything will be okay
Be still B.R. and we'll see you another day

VERSE 2:
Gordon talked of all the trips you'd take
And all the rules he'd try to make you break
How PVC light stands were genius
He was your best friend
But you were more like a father to him
And the Jacksons thought you could do no wrong
That's what made you such a perfect hero
But you've been fighting this since '91
Now all the fighting's done
So just go to sleep, let go and go back home

PRE-CHORUS:
'Cause Old Black's parked safely in the back yard
And all your work here is through

CHORUS:
So be still B.R. and everything will be okay
Be still B.R. and we'll see you another day

BRIDGE:
Responsibility, hard work and humility
Discipline, integrity, honesty and loyalty
Your generosity, compassion and decency
The way you displayed these things
Showed us who we should be.
We should be...

CHORUS:
So be still B.R. and everything will be okay
Be still B.R. and we'll see you another day
Ya we'll see you another day
Just let go and fly away
And we'll see you another day
