FREDDIE

Man you were the greatest guy in school

Everybody looked up to you

Maybe that could have been the answer

Do we put too much pressure on our hero's

Maybe you know that I thank you so much

For taking this young kid

I was just a junior when you were a Senior

But you invited me with your date to the Senior Prom

Man that was the greatest

I will never forget that snowy night in Tacoma

Going to the Senior Prom

With the All-American

Man you were the greatest athlete

Man you were the greatest Singer

The tenor we all wanted to be

With one of the prettiest girls in the whole school

Man I wanted to be just like you

And when I left Tacoma

You helped me to better myself

To seek out and accomplish

What I use to think impossible

I went on to travel the world

Serve God and my nation

Thinking you'd always be there

Man you left too soon

Wanted to tell you how much

I had done

Show you how much I had accomplished

Man you are always going to be missed

I open up my "Klahowya" the year book

And think of all the good times

I know your in a better place

But it's still hard not having you

around
