Rake up all the leaves in pleasant valley It's the last day of my visit upstate new york To pay respects to the old man
He's still got his sense of humor But his body fails him He's surrounded by loved ones But that only goes so far And does he know where he is? I doubt it.
Jack the lion roaring his last Like a vision sent from the past Bedside, crying, holding his hands Strong hands
Finally get a moment alone with the old man He's having trouble breathing and he's not the only one He wonders where time goes And why we haven't spoken for so long
He regrets it He forgets it And none too soon... Because he's closing his eyes and fading
We thank you for uniting We thank you for the cause We thank you for the lion We thank you for the claws
Come see him again Come see him again Come see him again Come see him again
Bop bop bop
Jack the lion roaring his last Like a vision sent from the past Bedside, crying, holding his hands Strong hands
