Jimi Hendrix

Though perhaps his best songs unwritten and never to be sung
Jimi Hendrix died famous and wealthy and young
At twenty seven from a drug overdose he passed away
Death from misadventure or suicide or call it what you may
News of his passing left millions of his young fans in tears
His legend did not die with him it will live on for years
He lived life in the fast lane as some like to say
But for self abuse the price is huge for to pay
He well may be living enjoying his fame
With thousands of his loyal fans chanting his name
On September the eighteenth nineteen seventy Jimi Hendrix was found dead
With many years of living life of him ahead
And though the breath of life from his mortal body long gone
His songs and his music today living on.
