Reno Or Die

My Grandfather passed very quickly.  This song is about getting my Dad to Reno to say goodbye.  Grampa is with Jesus now

Daddy got a phone call
That made a tear fall from his eye
Grandma called to tell him
“Son your daddy’s.. gonna die”
Its times like this
the world stands still
And you look
deep inside
I’m Asking God
for one request
let my daddy
say goodbye

The sun is setting tonight
Yes the sun is setting on Reno tonight am
Its Reno Or die

My Daddy is the oldest child
of 5 bright.. shiny stars
One blew out far too soon
Yes She was a shooting star
The youngest son a wild gun
Ohh The middle ohh so hard
And baby girl
She Still roams the world
She’s a gypsy at heart

But The suns still setting tonight
Yes the suns still setting on Reno tonight
Its Reno Or die
Yes Its Reno Or Die Yes Its Reno Or Die Yeah Reno Or Die

Now Grampa was a tough old man
Yes he worked really hard
His only vice was the love of his life
And a simple deck of cards
Its times like this
the world stands still
And you look
deep inside
I’m Asking God
for one request
let my daddy
say goodbye

But The sun’s still setting on Reno tonight
Yes the sun’s still setting with Jesus tonight
It looks like Reno Or die

Yes Its Reno Or Die
Sun sets on Reno tonight
Yes Its Reno Or Die
Sun sets on Reno tonight
Yes Its Reno Or Die
Sun sets on Reno tonight
