I heard today that Jerry's gone An era long has faded away His jolly face though old and grey Not in the way and cannot be replaced I want it said, he did me good Misunderstood by all who were not heads He lived like hell, the wildest rider Higher than a kite with tales to tell |

And I was glad to know you rider, glad you showed me rider From dark star into medley, St. Stephen, oh so deadly Glad to be a fighter, a smokin' tokin' rider And I'm sad to see another dead is grateful I'm sad to see another dead is grateful |

The Fillmore just a dream A trip or two in future He stretched across the sea And reached out through the mushroom cloud to me |

The skull is veiled, the rose will die We didn't fly the starship has sailed A ripple spreads, the pond remains A world has gained but our man Jerry's dead |

And I was glad to know you rider, glad you showed me rider From dark star into medley, St. Stephen, oh so deadly Glad to be a fighter, a smokin' tokin' rider And I'm sad to see another dead is grateful I'm sad to see another dead is grateful Yeah I'm sad to see another ....... |
