Augie Nieto - Five For Fighting Song

Five For Fighting Song

In 2009, John Ondrasik, Five for Fighting, wrote a song in Nieto's honor to help raise funds for Augie's Quest.

"Augie Nieto"
Augie nieto's got a story to tell you
Though it's hard to hear him speak
He caught lou gehrig rounding third one day
Now he's happy as he'll ever be

He's running through the night
He'll die before he sleeps
Augie's found what i've been looking for

Augie nieto can tell you he loves you
He's two wheels closer to god
His captain lynn sailing by his side
He'll never leave you lost

Though his arms can't squeeze you tight
He'll hold you when you sleep
Augie's found what i've been looking for

Hey yeah hey yeah
Take it any way it goes
Hey yeah hey yeah
Open up your never mind
Open up your mind

Augie nieto has never been happier
You got to see to believe
He caught lou gehrig rounding third one day
Now he's carrying the whole team

It's not the breaths you take
It's how to breathe
Augie's found what i've been looking for

Augie's found what i've been looking for

Famous quotes containing the words fighting and/or song:

    So that’s our new flag. The thing we’ve been fighting for—thirteen stripes for the colonies and thirteen stars in a circle for the union.
    Lamar Trotti (1898–1952)

    The screech and mechanical uproar of the big city turns the citified head, fills citified ears—as the song of birds, wind in the trees, animal cries, or as the voices and songs of his loved ones once filled his heart. He is sidewalk- happy.
    Frank Lloyd Wright (1869–1959)
