The Lyrics

In Memoriam: Bobby Hatfield, Righteous Brother, 1940-2003.
You never close your eyes anymore, 'twas the dust you bit
And there was a film called "Ghost" and your song was twice a hit
Your other hit most popular, (Bobby)
But Bobby, Bobby we miss you...

We've lost a Righteous Brother
Whoa, a Righteous Brother
We've lost a Righteous Brother
Now he's gone...gone...gone...wooooooh

Now there's nobody your age wo is still alive, oh no!
And now your're starting to critisize little things I do
Death makes me just feel like crying, (Bobby)
'Cause Bobby, on Wednesday you were dying

We've lost a Righteous Brother
Whoa, a Righteous Brother
We've lost a Righteous Brother
Now he's gone...gone...gone...wooooooh

Bobby, Bobby, I'll get down on my knees for you
If you would only live and not pass away, dude, yeah!
You had a hit...two hits...a catalog of hits today
So don't...don't...don't...don't let life slip away

Bobby (Bobby), Bobby (Bobby)
Bobby, rest in peace...peace
I need your songs (I need your songs), I need your life (I need your life)
So bring it on back (So bring it on back), Bring it on back (so bring it on back)

Bring back that Righteous Brother
Whoa, even as a zombie
Bring back that Righteous Brother
'Cause he's gone...gone...gone
and I loved their songs
Ohhhhh......

Bring back that Righteous Brother
Whoa, even as a zombie
Bring back that Righteous Brother
'Cause he's gone...gone...gone.....

RIP Bobby.

Great tribute to a great artist. Well done. I voted 5 on funny since there is no voting slot for how profound. Thanks for the tribute.

Earth has lost a precious voice of deep warmth and richness. I agree with Guy on the voting - my vote of 5 for "How Funny" was for profundity, but I do admit that I got a respectfully silent little chuckle from the line "Whoa, even as a zombie".

Yeah, there really ought to be a way to change "funny" to something else for purposefully-not-funny songs like this one. Smart people should realize that anyway. 5-5-5
