A MAN OF STATURE

(Dave Walker�s tribute to Peter Barnett 5th Dan)

`Pete is never far away�

How the years have come and Gone
What are our feelings based
Upon

As we search our hearts and Minds
The answer is not hard to
Find

This man of strength this man of Steel
It�s not hard to show the way we Feel

Peter lived the life of
Ten
His like we will never see
Again

This man who helped us with our Sport
We learned so much that he has Taught

This man who stood out from the Crowd
He would look and smile and make us
Proud

How can one man do so
Much
Enrich the lives of those he Touched

As we fought through the
Day
Pete was never far
Away

As we cut them down to
Size
See the passion in Pete�s
Eyes

Is he left or is he
Right
Do you want to win this
Fight

  

Faster faster nice
Attack
Too late now you�re on your Back

Does it hurt where�s the
Pain
Just get up and start
Again

Sometimes when things were not going
Well
He would come across and give us
Hell

Then just a word or just a
Smile
For Pete we would find that extra
Mile

For thirty years he was our
Coach
He always found a new
Approach

Those thirty years have run their Course
How can we measure such a Force

This man who stands out from the
Crowd
This man who makes us all so Proud

As we go about our day
`Pete is never far
Away�
