He was the kind of guy, you and I would for a friend
was a regular guy, with an old soul look in his eye
He was a man of word, and to himself to the end

Manny liked to laugh and share a story or two

Well now old Manny has gone,
I finally made him up Manny's hat
'Cause it's the best way to keep your old friend alive in a

Manny was a maker of hats, Manny was much than that
He was the kind of guy, you and I want for a friend
