A Wrestling Fan In Heaven

The arena's a little darker now, then it was at the last show
and the workers are all walking out, kinda sad and slow
The bell is speaking softly in a sad and mournful way
and the audience is on its feet, a fan has passed away

The bell tolls ten for wrestlers when the final call is made
out of respect and out of love a ringing homage paid
so many of them are now gone to join that heavenly show
and now a much beloved fan has a seat in the ringside row

A true wrestling fan's in heaven now, he's in that heavenly crowd
cheering for the great ones, standing tall and walking proud
while those of us who are left behind fondly remember him.
he's in heaven's wrestling arena, working out in God's own gym

So toll ye bell, for a fan today, ring farewell and a fond goodbye
he would want the show to go on, so we'll cheer rather than cry
he would want the babyface to win and the cheating heel to pay
A true wrestling fan's watching the show from heaven on this day

It is not only wrestlers who pass away but fans as well. This was written right around the time of the passing of a beloved fan, whose name escapes me. He was a tiny guy who rode an electric scooter and was known and respected as a pillar of the fan community.
