Number Three
By: Shawn Kimbro
Can you see the green flag waving
Don't you hear the engines roar
See him racing down the backstretch
With the pedal to the floor
There's a highway up in heaven
And a fair wind blowing free
There's a race that runs forever
Welcome driver Number Three
From a small town in Carolina
Living every farm boy's dream
He became a man of legend
When he made that engine scream
Winning seven Winston titles
Every point he got was earned
Living life at open throttle Risking all at every turn
From the banks of Talladega To Daytona's burning sands
He was called "intimidator"
More a legend than a man
Just a glimpse back in the mirror
Made opponents blood run cold
But his kids all called him daddy
And his heart was made of gold
Now on every race-day Sunday
When the checkered flag waves
We'll forever in our memory
See a flat-black Chevrolet
And to Fireball, Adam, Kenny Davy, Cliff, Neil, and JD
To the victory lane in heaven
Welcome driver number three
Can you see the green flag waving
Don't you hear the engines roar
Racing down the backstretch
With the pedal to the floor
There's a highway up in heaven P
aved with gold and running free
There's a race that runs forever
Welcome driver Number Three

It�s Sunday soon
The race will come
I�m gonna rest
You�re gonna run
There in the stands
to watch you go �round
I�ll be looking down
So race on
Stay strong
You�ll do fine
It�s good to know
I was you�re hero
�Cause you were mine
I watched you grow
I held you�re hand
You where born to race
Like you�re old man
My final turn
last thing I know
I whispered �Go son, go�
And race on
Stay strong
You�ll do fine
It�s good to know
I was you�re hero
�Cause you were mine
It�s good to know
I was you�re hero
�Cause you were mine
You were mine
