One More Angel In Heaven

Father, we've something to tell you
 A story of our time
 A tragic but inspiring tale
 Of manhood in its prime
 You know you had a dozen sons...
 Well now that's not quite true
 But feel no sorrow—do not grieve
 He would not want you to
 There's one more angel in heaven
 There's one more star in the sky
 Joseph, we'll never forget you
 It's tough but we're gonna get by
 There's one less place at our table
 There's one more tear in my eye
 But Joseph, the things that you stood for
 Like truth and light never die
 When I think of his last great battle
 A lump comes to my throat
 It takes a man who knows no fear
 To wrestle with a goat
 His blood-stained coat is tribute to
 His final sacrifice
 His body may be past its peak
 But his soul's in paradise
 ♪
 So long little Joe!
 Adios, buckaroo!
 10–4, good buddy!
 There's one less place at our table
 There's one more tear in my eye
 But Joseph, the things that you stood for
 Like truth and light never die
 Carve his name with pride and courage
 Let no tear be shed
 If he had not laid down his life
 We all would now be dead
