Rinkydink

Rinkydink, you got a copy on me?
There in Heaven, where I know you’ll be
It’s me Shocker, calling for you Rinkydink
On the CB Radio is where we made our link

You with the Super Snoop by your side
A picturesque blue van you liked to ride
We know you’re not gone, but always around
The only difference is, your feet’s not touching the ground

You have the wings, you’ve earned them well
Because there were times life put you through hell
But you always managed to make it through
I guess that’s what made you you

John, you were a good friend
And although your human life will end
Your soul will go on, your life continues
And for us left behind, that is always good news

Rinkydink, do you have a copy on me?
Get your ears on, your soul is free
We were so lucky to have met such a wonderful soul
Someone like you is always someone good to know
Thank you for sharing your life with us here
Thank you for being someone so dear


For John “Rinkydink,” may your journey take you where you want to be.
