Scott Whitby, 2021


It's Ray's birthday

Happy birthday Ray

Everybody's best friend

Mine for sure I'd say


Best Daddy best husband

Worked too hard

Everything for everyone

Better than you at cards


Crossed that bridge

Damn near died

In class by eight

Never lied


Sweetest mama

Brother too soon gone

Daddy too

But he's not the last one


Bailey'll carry on

That for sure we know

Might not be a Compton

But Ray's good will grow


Gave his best years

To this little town

Burned him out

A shame we have to own


Happy Birthday Ray

You get a pass

Anyone don't like it

I'll kick their ass


Appreciate who you are

All the other days

Thanks for who you are

You made me better in my ways
