Lyrics

[INTRO]
Oh, Lou, oh Lou,
Good Ol’ Lou, go to ride with the Lord.
In the rearview, I see your smile,
A spirit free, forever wild.

[VERSE 1]
Lou is no longer held down by a mind of old.
The world lost a Lou, but heaven’s calling him home.
He gained those heavenly wheels, with a heart turning gold,
On that perfect Chevelle, cruising heaven street with forever to roam.

[CHORUS]
Dear Lou, you will never be forgotten,
Lou is smiling again, love that won’t be trodden.
Lou is happy again, shining bright like a star,
Oh Lou, my friend, you’re a hotrod angel with your perfect car.

[VERSE 2]
These damn tire kickin’ color’d’s, they just can’t see,
Dementia stole his mind, but his soul has broken free.
Now you’re livin’ the dreams that were once stuck within,
Worked the lots all your life, now let the fun begin.

[CHORUS]
Oh Lou, is, was & forever will be,
A man of old, strong and free,
You are Hank Senior, John Wayne too,
A Red Blooded American, an Ohio Original, true.

[BRIDGE]
The big sleep has come, oh can’t you feel at ease?
Time to take a break, put your worries to sleep.
You were a car man, you worked hard every day,
Now it's Lou’s time, let the worries fade away.

[CHORUS]
Dear Lou, you will never be forgotten,
Lou is smiling again, love that won’t be trodden.
Lou is happy again, shining bright like a star,
Oh Lou, my friend, you’re a hotrod angel with the perfect car.

[OUTRO]
Lou’s time to be with your Mom and Dad once more,
Now you’re a hotrod angel, feel that heavenly roar.
Peelin’ rubber on clouds, racing on heaven street,
You sold cars out of the mud, now you finally find peace.
Oh, Lou, oh Lou, you are now & forever free.
