Local lore about a legend man from a ramblin band

lyrics

Oh I knew this boy l, No he was a man
And that man’s name was Dan, Dan Henry

Dan Henry Dan Henry, Dan Henry Dan Henry

Dan Henry Dan Henry, Dan Henry Dan Henry

*Dan, Dan was the Man
*Dan, Dan was the Dan

Oh I met him down at the Clayton Pool,
Ya he sold his old car to Drew,
Dan Henry, Dan Henry

Drivin’ round the town with Miesch,
Come on sott, Pack that Piece
Dan Henry, Dan Henry

Stopping’ at Ob’s for a beer with Tino
Gonna stay late so we can watch Gino
Dan Henry, Dan Henry

Never seen him without his baseball cap
In the Rienman’s truck, with Nolan Knapp
Dan Henry, Dan Henry

Drain-in’ 3-pointers all day at Rec Park
Schoolin’ Bobby Harvey ‘till after Dark
Dan Henry, Dan Henry

He’s the smartest Henry, I’ll tell ya what’s true
Josh and Ben can’t add 2 + 2
Dan Henry, Best Henry

Most stand up guy that I ever knew
Even nice to me with a Mohawk due
Dan Henry Dan Henry

*Dan was the Man
*Dan was the Dan
