JOHN J. BLANCHARD
He had a stroke in '95
They thought it best

That he reside

In a nursin' home
His family vowed

They'd never leave him

Last time they came to see him

Was three years ago
He spent his whole life
Providin'

Now he was down

To relyin' on Medicaid
The nurses took a likin' to him
They'd get his wheelchair out
And push him

On sunny days
He couldn't walk he couldn't speak

Seemed so far out of reach
But in his mind as far

As they knew he could be
Fly fushin'

Workin' on that Firebird engine

Runnin' 99 proof moonshine

Across that county line
Three two one
And ignition

Off on some

Space shuttle mission
Playin' Q B
For the Cowboys

Gettin' high on the crowd noise
And the bright lights
While deep inside

Things were rockin'

In the mind of
John J. Blanchard
One afternoon

In June

A nurse saw his finger move

And 'bout had a heart attack
Went screamin'

Down the hall

Hey ifs a miracle fall

lthink he's comin' back
The doctors all rushed in said
Do you know what year this is

How many Mgers am I holdin'

And where've ya been
And he said fly fishin'

Workin' on that Firebird engine

Runnin' 99 proof moonshine

Across that county line
Three two one
And ignition

Off on some

Space shuttle mission
Playin' Q B
For the Cowboys

Gettin' high on the crowd noise
And the bright lights
Yeah all this time

Things were rockin'

In the mind of
John J. Blanchard
Instrumental break
He had a stroke in '95
They thought it best

That he reside

In a nursin' home
