	This tune was commissioned by former WCW and present AWA Wrestling champion, EVAN KARAGIAS, heralding his return to the ring in answer to the media attention that would follow. It's an anthem for anyone making a 'comeback'...especially when others have sold you short!

	Story Behind the Song I'd been in a few private discussions with Evan Karagias, mostly centering around Faith and Focus and the differences between his public and private life as a wrestler. It suddenly dawned on me that in order to really make a 'new statement' about the man behind the image, we should write a song that taught others how to 'view him'. Thus the inspiration... Enter Edwin Ramos, Jr. I'd collaborated with Edwin on "How Can I Tell You?", recorded as BrotherDouglas, in 1999 and not only had an instant chemistry, musically, but developed a sincere friendship with him and his young family. I'd heard this track, back then, when he'd prepared it for a well known vocalist. When it was never recorded by her, I asked him to hold on to it for me, if and when I got a chance to record again. Going through my own share of 'transitions', I wasn't at all certain that would be anytime soon!! But, he did hold onto it, and this is the result. The vocals were all recored in a single day session. Lyrics GOOD MAN (D. Powell, E. Karagias, E. Ramos) You Can't Keep a Good Man Down!! Good Man, A Good Man... Verse One: Betcha' thought, I wouldn't return... Didn't mean to cause you concern. To come back stronger, I had to go away,... But the plan, all along, was to come back and say... Chorus: Good Man, A Good Man... You Can't Keep a Good Man Down... Verse Two: Should you fall, down to your knees... Ask for courage, to face your fears and succeed. In spite of all who've turned from your side, Trust the Love that remains and continue your stride. Chorus: (2x) Verse Three: You can't Bury Me, Discourage Me... Silence Me, or Destroy Me. To come back wiser, I had to pay my dues... Now with GOD on my side, there's no way I can lose!! Chorus: A GOOD MAN, A GOOD MAN!! Chorus: You can't, You can't keep me down. Don't even try it, I ain't having it... I ain't going nowhere!! You can't silence me, or destroy me. You Can't Keep a Good Man Down!!!!
