Tribute to Dean

We had a cracking night at Fatboab's in Kincardine last night.After a lot of thought, and changes of opinion, I decided to play my reworked lyric version of Knocking On Heaven's Door in tribute to Dean. To be totally honest, I know it's now cliched to rework this particular song but, when I did it on Thursday, the song actually chose itself, I did the business within 15 minutes and it was the easiest thing in the world to do.

So, here's my version of the lyrics as performed yesterday.

Ma, take these bonds off of me,
I just don't need them anymore
I've got my legs back, I'm gonna run free
Cos now I'm knocking on heaven's door.

CHORUS
Knock knock knocking on heaven's door
Knock knock knocking on heaven's door
Knock knock knocking on heaven's door
I'm just knocking on heaven's door

Ma, can't you see the smile on my face
You know I'll love you forever more
Although I've gone from this earthly place
And I am standing at heaven's door

CHORUS

The Lord is my shepherd
I shall not want
He makes me down to lie
In pastures green
He leadeth me
The quiet waters by

Dad, the wind blows through my hair
I'm not in pain anymore
You'll hear my laugh in the winter air
And I'll be waiting at heaven's door

CHORUS

Rest easy Deanie and God bless you!
