number four
the roar of the crowd has been silenced
the field of play is now clear
the hero of a lifetime has vanished
what his fans for so long have feared
while evidence of his existance is everywhere
he seems to have disappeared into thin air
his records at Lambeau remain
while in the playing field he is no longer there
he brought the trophy back to lambeau
many long time have reveared
after 30 years of feeling empty
he brought back the roar of the cheers
he renewed the name "Title Town"
to old Green Bay
it's the place that it belongs
many fans would say
the day of the announcement
everyone held their breath
he would retire to mississippi
all felt like there had been a death
the games' true legand
will no longer play
his time seems to have run out
now he sit on his tractor
and whiles-away the day
three time mvp's
many records he does own
still the crowd cries out for more
make Green Bay his home
he did what others could not do
he did it with small town style
the championships, the super bowl
he did it with a smile
so a new page is turning
it seemed to come far too quick
the thought that #4 is gone
has made many of us sick
