| Looking Ahead In a few more days What would have been A birthday blast For a great champion. He would have turned 50, The big five-oh A grand party for sure With his friends, we know. But instead he'll celebrate From high in the skies With a different group of friends Some other great guys. I'm sure they'll race Then have some fun While we're in California Thinking of the great one. Imagine how cool A win for Junior would be Winning his first of the year When his daddy would be 50. It would only be fitting If only we could plan Maybe someone up above Can give them a hand. An emotional win It surely would make For the #8 Bud car To not make a mistake. Junior, we know, You'll do your daddy proud Just as if he was A part of the crowd. But whomever wins The race this week Will drive with a heavy heart For a man who was in his peak. Dale will be missed As he always will But fans and drivers Keep his memory alive still. |
