Thanks for the memories
You really had no peers
You helped us through fears
You made us laugh so hard that sometimes we were brought to tears
We thank you for that
Thanks for the memories
You brought our soldiers hope
Always helped them cope
Your politics leaned rightward so we know you weren't a dope
We thank you for that
You took the road to Morocco...sometimes you had really been tested
Your new road leads to heaven...your show there, requested
So thanks for the memories
From England, here you came
Leslie was your name
Without you in this country it would not have been the same
We thank you for that
Thanks for the memories
We heard one-liners flow
You were such a pro
Self-depricating when you talked about your ski-jump nose
We thank you for that
Thanks for the memories
With Crosby and Lamour
We knew what's in store
We always got our money's worth when we walked in the door
We thank you for that
You took the road to Morocco...sometimes you had really been tested
Your new road leads to heaven...your show there, requested
So thanks for the memories
Your patriotic heart
You'd shown from the start
When someone called upon you, you were glad to do your part
And so we...thank you for that
