(Reuben)

Father, we've something to tell you, a story of our time

A tragic but inspiring tale of manhood in its prime

You know you had a dozen sons

Well now that's not quite true

But feel no sorrow, do not grieve

He would not want you to

(RR, RR's Wife, & MM)

There's one more angel in heaven

There's one more star in the sky

Joseph we'll never forget you

It's tough but we're gonna get by

There's one less place at our table

There's one more tear in my eye

(Brothers)

But Joseph the things that you stood for

(RR)

Like truth and light never die

When I thing of his last great battle

A lump comes to my throat

It takes a man who knows no fear

To wrestle with a goat

His blood-stained coat is tribute to

His final sacrifice

His body may be past its peak

But his soul's in paradise

So long, little Jo

Adios, buckeroo

Ten-four, good buddy

(Jacob)

There's one less place at our table

There's one more tear in my eye

(Brothers)

But Joseph the things that you stood for

(RR)

Like truth and light never die

(Brothers)

Carve his name with pride and courage

(Napthali)

Let no tear be shed

(Brothers)

If he had not laid down his life

We all would now be dead
