about

Tony "Cince" Birckhead was lead guitarist and keyboard player in my band, Them Fargo Brothers, back in the late 70's. He was known for his intense performances and he couldn't get enough of it. He passed away several years ago now, and recently I decided to write this song for him.

lyrics

Em A
It takes a hot and sweaty night
C Em
To grease up the dance floor
Em A
It's all the girls eager for love
C Em
That brings you back for more


There's no end to this life
Created in song
No end to the tour
That goes on and on

CHO G A
When the last song's been played
C Em
And the crowd calls out for more
G A
There's a sigh that fills the air
C Em
And you know he's been there

He fell one night
And there was no cure
His anguish quenched his soul
And the sound was so very pure

The crowd heads for the door
For tonight they'll be no more
His life was filled with music
Spilling out on the floor
