I heard the news it was yesterday
Your heart’s given up on you
My heart it will never stop
Loving your music till I drop
I know so little about you
But you were my best friend
I can always hear your music
When I’m happy when I’m sad
J.J. Cale can never die
He just left us with a beautiful gift
His songs remain
As a golden survival kit
I remember what happened
When I heard you the first time
Crazy mama they call me the breeze
I was enchanted by a sound so fine
It felt like coming home
The same as when met my wife
I knew that very moment
That I finally did find mine
I want to say hello to Christine
To Jimmy Karstein
And to all the others
That have been there from the start
I want you to know that all this time
From all this distance
I’ve been riding along with you
You’ve been riding along with me
J.J. Cale can never die
J.J. Cale he was the sensitive kind
