Tribute Song 1

Koritsune Dragonrider walked on a stage in front of a black curtain with a mike in hand. Reaching the middle of the stage she held up the mike.

"On Sept. 12, 2003 the world lost one of the greatest country singers of our time, Johnny Cash," she said. "Here is an album of some of his greatest songs sung by the Urameshi team. The first song is "Daddy Sang Bass" sung by Yusuke Urameshi. BTW, they pick their songs."

Kori walked off stage as the audience applauded and the curtain opened. On stage were Yusuke, Kuwabara, Kurama and Hiei. Kuwabara was behind a drum set, Kurama and Hiei has a guitar each, and Yusuke had a microphone in his hand. Behind them was a black and white picture of Johnny Cash.

Yusuke held up the mike and sang,

"I remember when I was a lad

Times were hard and things were bad.

But there's a silver lining behind every cloud.

Just poor people, that's all we were.

Trying to make a living of black land dirt

We'd get together in a family circle singing loud."

"Daddy sang bass," sang Kuwabara in a bass tone.

"Mama sang tenor," sang Kurama in a high tenor.

"Me and little brother would join right in there," sang Hiei and Yusuke together.

"Singing seems to help a troubled soul," sang Yusuke back in his solo.

"One of these days and it won't be long,

I'll rejoin them in a song.

I'm gonna join the family circle at the Throne.

No the circle won't be broken.

By and by, Lord, by and by."

"Daddy sang bass," sang Kuwabara again

"Mama sang tenor," sang Kurama with him.

"Me and little brother would join right in there," sang Hiei and Yusuke.

"In the sky, Lord, in the sky," they all sang together and Yusuke went in with the next verse.

"Now I remember after work

Mama would call all of us

You could here us singing for a country mile.

Now little brother has done gone on.

But I'll rejoin him in a song.

We'll be together again up yonder in a little while"

"Daddy sang bass," sang Kuwabara.

"Mama sang tenor," joined in Kurama.

"Me and little brother would join right in there," sang Hiei and Yusuke.

"Cause singing seems to help troubled soul," sang Yusuke.

"One of these days and it won't be long,

I'll rejoin them in a song.

I'm gonna join the family circle at the Throne.

Oh no, the circle won't be broken.

By and by, Lord, by and by."

"Daddy sang bass," sang Kuwabara.

"Mama sang tenor," sang Kurama.

"Me and little brother would join right in there," sang Hiei and Yusuke.

"In the sky, Lord, in the sky," they all sang together.

"In the sky, Lord, in the sky."

The audience applauded as the team bowed and the curtained closed.
