chuck brodsky - the ballad of stan rogers & leo kennedy lyrics
hardly anybody goes to visit leo
all but forgotten except by a few
i heard somebody speak so fondly of him
made me wish i knew him
i got directions to the church yard
i took a walk on up the hill
that overlooks the stan rogers folk festival
the year that i was on the bill
it was in the local lions club
which was the backstage dining hall
saw a picture there of leo
framed & hanging on a wall
such a good hearted fellow
so say all the people i know who knew him
it had to be someone who loved the man
whoever the artist was that drew him
leo in his uniform
pins & medals decorate his vest
rolled up shirtsleeves & a funny hat
tilted slightly to the west
i figured maybe he was there
to keep a watch over the place
smiling on everyone
he had a real familiar face
if you’re up in canso, nova scotia
it’s just a flat stone on the ground
he lies just next to lumsden
you might have to look around
it’s a simple little marker
two hands clasped in prayer
i sat down beside it
and said a little one there
i’d only heard about stan rogers
now it was time to listen to him
his songs brought back to life again
by people i know who knew him
and i thought about a campfire
and the texas morning light
and that feeling that you leave with
after being there all night
so i’m saying farewell to leo
it was nearly a quarter ‘til…
the ballads of stan rogers
i’d been enjoying from the hill
“stay for another song, son“
i thought i heard somebody say
for one more song, and i had to smile…
before i walked away
