WELCOME TO THE 27 CLUB song lyrics by Joel Sattler

Hey 27 Club

Hey 27 Club

Hey 27 Club

These are members 27 Club

Robert Johnson played the blues

Played the blues and paid the dues

Lying in the crossroad dirt

With a bullet in his throat

Hey 27 Club

Hey 27 Club

Hey 27 Club

These are members 27 Club

Pretty little Brian Jones

Father of the Rolling Stones

Floating solo body cool

Face down in the swimming pool

Hey 27 Club

Hey 27 Club

Hey 27 Club

These are members 27 Club

Jim Morrison iconoclast

Burned so hot he couldn’t last

Found and bloated colored blue

In a bathtub in the nude

Hey 27 Club

Hey 27 Club

Hey 27 Club

These are members 27 Club 

Hendrix one with his guitar

Shooting out beyond the stars

Flying on the little wing

Teaching angels how to sing

Hey 27 Club

Hey 27 Club

Hey 27 Club

These are members 27 Club 

Janis Joplin on the run

Shining brighter than the sun

Listen to her on the juke

Strangled in her junkie puke

Hey 27 Club

Hey 27 Club

Hey 27 Club

These are members 27 Club 

Pigpen with the Chosen Few

Walking in the morning dew

Don’t forget Herr Kurt Cobain

With a shotgun to his brain

Hey 27 Club

Hey 27 Club

Hey 27 Club

These are members 27 Club 

Pay the boatman Charon with your blood

As you cross the dead black River Styx

Give you bones to Cerebus

On the far side of the Acheron

Tip your hat to Beelzebub

As he opens up the door

Welcome to the 27 Club

Is this what your life was for?

Hey 27 Club

Hey 27 Club

Hey 27 Club

Welcome to the 27 Club 

=======================   

A new verse, written on 7/23/11 

Amy Winehouse heart on fire 
living life down to the wire
pouring out her soul onstage
dying in a fit of rage 

================
