Some know you for, There Goes My Baby.
Long before Charlie Wilson claimed the phase for himself.
When you apart of the Drifters second reincarnation.

Others know you for Count The Tears.
Which many amazed was never recorded by Elvis.
Mainly cause of the song writers.

But none upon this earth has put a spin on lyrics like you.
When you spill out Stand By Me about a lady you adore so much.

Drift on, Benjamin E. Nelson.
Drift on, Benjamin E. King.
With the E standing for Excellent singer.

Who gave the world so much?
