The Lyrics
In response to the recent shooting and death of three University Of Virginia (UVA) Football players: Devin Chandler, Lavel Davis Jr., and D’Sean Perry who sadly lost their lives in thanks to this unfortunate incident. Thankfully the shooter was arrested and dealt with on the Charlottesville campus, and since UVA’s mascot is The Cavalier, I found the title fitting. RIP to those 3 young NCAA football players who had so much to live for academically and athletically.
One day I got the dreaded news
From Charlottesville’s college
And when I heard that Mr. Jones’s
Charge was acknowledged
Poor cavaliers, my my
Oh cavaliers, oh why
(My my, poor cavaliers)
Oh cavaliers, oh why
Three football players strong and black
With bright futures all ahead
Their personalities always on track
Now they all are dead
Poor cavaliers, my my
Oh cavaliers, oh why
(My my, poor cavaliers)
Oh cavaliers, oh why
The USA is so gun ridden
And why’s the world so messed
A wacko just like this one here
Makes us oh so stressed
Poor cavaliers, my my
Oh cavaliers, oh why
(My my, poor cavaliers)
Oh cavaliers, oh why
Well, this shooting counts as number five
For Virginia itself alone
And all the classes down at UVA
Are cancelled to the bone
Poor cavaliers, my my
Oh cavaliers, oh why
(My my, poor cavaliers)
Oh cavaliers, oh why
Poor cavaliers, my my
Oh cavaliers, oh why
(My my, poor cavaliers)
Oh cavaliers, oh why
Poor cavaliers, my my
Oh cavaliers, oh why
(My my, poor cavaliers)
(Poor cavaliers)
