A Tribute To A King - William Bell[00:00:01]

Written by：William Bell/Booker T. Jones[00:00:02]

Listen people listen[00:00:14]

I'm gonna sing you a song[00:00:17]

About a man who lived good[00:00:20]

But didn't live too long[00:00:23]

He was born in Macon Georgia[00:00:27]

A poor boy without a dime[00:00:30]

He found his way to Memphis[00:00:34]

Singing these arms of mine[00:00:37]

Otis Otis Redding was his name[00:00:41]

Without his soulful singing[00:00:47]

This old world won't be the same[00:00:50]

Now he traveled on to Frisco[00:00:54]

New York and abroad[00:00:57]

Everywhere he sang[00:01:01]

The people would applaud[00:01:04]

One day he left Georgia[00:01:07]

Wisconsin bound[00:01:11]

But he didn't get to sing that night[00:01:14]

The plane he was in went down[00:01:17]

Otis Otis Redding was his name[00:01:21]

Without his soulful singing[00:01:28]

This old world won't be the same[00:01:31]

He was a soul music singer[00:01:34]

The king of the Memphis sound[00:01:38]

It makes me feel so sad[00:01:41]

Cause now he ain't around[00:01:44]

He died with his guitar[00:01:48]

Close to his hands[00:01:51]

But his soul lives on today[00:01:54]

In the heart of a million fans[00:01:58]

Taking about[00:02:00]

Otis Otis Redding was his name[00:02:01]

Without his soulful singing[00:02:08]

This old world won't be the same[00:02:11]

Otis Otis Redding was his name[00:02:15]

His picture oughta be hung[00:02:21]

In the music hall of fame[00:02:24]

Otis he was known as Big O[00:02:28]

Otis we gonna miss him so[00:02:35]

Otis ooh yeah[00:02:42]

We gonna miss him so[00:02:45]

Otis[00:02:48]
