Album Notes

My 3rd grade daughter's teacher is a Green Bay Packer and Brett Favre nut. When Favre "retired" he asked me about co-writing a tribute song. I said ok, one other teacher helped out. Before we were finished, I asked my song writing buddy Randy Cisco (another Packer Backer)to help record and finish the song. Here is the result. A version by me a version by him and a sing-a-long.

This all happened before the drama and hoopla.

It's still a great song, hope you enjoy it and add it to your sports music collection.

Good-bye Brett Favre

Written by Mr. Billy, Randy Cisco, Regan Budek & Stephanie Albers

It was the end of an era in Titletown
When our hero hung up his cleats
After a hundred and sixty victories
That kept the fans at the edge of their seats

It all began in 1992
When we gave up a first round pick
September 27 he took the field
Atlanta’s loss was our gift

A living legend to you and me
And a three time MVP

Good-bye Brett
Good-bye Brett
Good-bye Brett
Why does it have to be so hard to say good-bye Brett Favre?

He lead the Pack for 16 years
Gave a hundred percent with ease
The most completions and highest yards
Throwing a record for TD’s

After two hundred and fifty three starts
Canton Ohio will call his name
Adding Green and Gold’s number 4
To the NFL hall of fame

A living legend to you and me
And a three time MVP

Good-bye Brett
Good-bye Brett
Good-bye Brett
Why does it have to be so hard to say good-bye Brett Favre?
