The Lyrics

This song is a tribute to the recently desceased original singer for Iron Butterfly, before Doug Ingle sang lead. Ingle only played organ at the time. Darryl DeLoach died from liver cancer on October 3, 2002.

He sang in IB from the start
before Doug Ingle, that old fart
and now Darryl DeLaoch has died
hey baby c'mon
I loved that band endlessly
When they sang Inagaddadavi-da!
so now it's time to leave and make it alone
I know that I can't take no more
Why'd he have to die?
Losing another member of the rock band
Iron Buterfly (fly, fly)

"...Don't you know that I love you?"
He left the band, and the others did album two
which went platinum and it ain't no lie
It's Iron Butterfly (fly, fly)
That overrepeated riff
I just wanna tell you that he had enough
DeLoach got liver cancer I wish wish it was a lie
Iron Butterfly (fly, fly, fly)

They just hit me with the truth
It made me go boo-hoo
Give me one good reason
for this depature
He lived for you and me
Orignally led IB
Before Doug took "Vida" up to #1
i know that I can't take no more
Why'd he have to die
I wanna see you out that door
baby bye bye bye

(chorus)

He gave up the battle I know for sure
I don't wanna be the reason for this death no more
Fly, fly
I'm jamming to the Vida riff
The organ solo and I'm standing stiff

Darryl DeLoach
Wasn't on album two
'Cause he left IB behind

Butterfly
DeLoach's death made it tough
but I've had enough
Why'd he have to die
Fly, fly
"...Don't you know that I love you?"
He left the band, and the others did album two
which went platinum and it ain't no lie
It's Iron Butterfly (fly, fly)
That overrepeated riff
I just wanna tell you that he had enough
DeLoach got liver cancer I wish wish it was a lie
Iron Butterfly (fly, fly, fly)

Darrly was cool . He was from Clairemont. I didn't hear about his passing. His liver disease was painful for me to watch . I think your parody is unimaginative and sad . No doubt Darrly's varied sense of humor would somehow find it funny .
