As of December 2021, only Sam Moore is still alive. Dave Prater died in a car accident in April 1988.

Don't you ever feel sad
Lean on me when times are bad

When the day comes and you're down
In a river of trouble and about to drown

Just hold on, I'm coming

Hold on, I'm coming

Sam and Dave were great together. Their perfect voices made some pretty memorable tunes.
