Took the Stones "Satisfaction" from #1
Loved that song, and especially loved Sonny as a man.
My favorite Sonny Bono song.

Sonny Bono was becoming an important republican before his death.
The Revolution Kind
Song by Sonny Bono
I’m glad I’m here just like you
And if I say a thing or two
That doesn’t mean I’m all that mad
Or that I think this place is bad
We got a land and the land is free
And no one loves it more than me
But a man’s got a right to talk about
What’s on his mind
That doesn’t necessarily mean
He’s a revolution kind
Destruction is near we heard the moans
But I got conclusions of my own
Have I got some kid I have to teach
That if somebody makes a speech
And what he said you don’t agree
Just let him scream the man is free
But a man’s got a right to talk about
What’s on his mind
That doesn’t necessarily mean
He’s a revolution kind
These words all have been said before
By men who have to go to war
By men who cried and kiss their wife
By men who had to give their life
By better men my friend than me
That’s why this land we have is free
But a man’s got a right to talk about
What’s on his mind
That doesn’t necessarily mean
He’s a revolution kind
The only thing Sonny did worse than singing was skiing.
Backed by the Wrecking Crew, IIRC
It’s hard to believe it’s been 25 years since he died.
Damn, man, that’s cold.
