For those of you who just can’t get enough of our Who Dat boys, one of Magic 101.9’s favorite listener is back with another Saint’s Poem. This one’s called….

“BURY DAT”

BY DON LeCOCQ (pronounced “Le-Coke”)

MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS

WE ARE GATHERD HERE TONIGHT

TO BURY THE PAST FOUR DECADES

AND LOOK AT OUR NEW FOUND MIGHT

OUR MANY YEARS OF TRAVEL

HAVE BEEN UP, BUT MOSTLY DOWN

NOW AT LONG LAST WE’RE SOARING

MILES HIGH ABOVE THE GROUND

THEY CALLED US ‘AINT’S” OR DID WE GIVE

THAT NAME UNTO OUR SELF

WE WORE THE BAGS, WE BOOED, WE CRIED

WE PUT OUR FAITH UP ON THE SHELF

THIS FOLLOWED US AROUND THE WORLD

FOR OH SO MANY YEARS

THEY LAUGHED AND MOCKED US AND OUR TEAM

AS WE SHED LAKES OF TEARS

BUT NOW MY FRIENDS WE ARE AT PEACE

THE “AINT’S” HAVE RUN THEIR COURSE

TODAY WE LAY THEM ALL TO REST

AS WE SCREAM UNTIL WE’RE HOARSE

THE CASKET CARRIES ALL THE BAGS

WE ONCE WORE ON OUR HEADS

THE PAST, THE WOES, THE SADDENED TIMES

TODAY WE MARK AS DEAD

AS WE MARCH AND AS WE RIDE

TO MARK THE END OF BAGS AND “AINT’S”

WE TRULY ALSO HONOR

OUR CHAMPION SUPER SAINTS

FELLOW WHO DATS GO INTO THE NIGHT

LET’S FINISH WHAT WE STARTED

TURN WHAT ONCE LIVED AS THE “AINT’S”

INTO THE DEAR DEPARTED
