My grandfather once told me that there were two kinds of people: those who do the work and those who take the credit. He told me to try to be in the first group; there was much less competition.

Tell Tommy, I Miss Him (1960)

Tell Tommy, I Miss Him (by Skeeter Davis)
(This is the reply song to "Tell Laura, I Love Her")

Tommy, my sweet heart, is gone now.

He's up in the heaven, somewhere.

So, little star high above,

If you see Tommy, tell him of my love.

'Tell Tommy I love him.

Tell Tommy I miss him.

Tell him though I may cry,

My love for him will never die.'

He drove his car in that stock car race

To win money so we could wed.

He wanted so much

To make me his wife.

Now our love lives on

Though he lost his life.

I'm so lonely without him near.

Oh, how I miss his warm embrace.

I love no other,

I want him to know.

Oh, little star,

Please tell him so,

'Tell Tommy I love him.

Tell Tommy I miss him.

Tell him though I may cry,

My love for him will never die.'

Although he wanted to give me the world

Why did he do such a reckless thing?

Little star, he should have realized

I was richer than a queen

When he looked into my eyes.

'Tell Tommy I love him.

Tell Tommy I miss him.

Tell him though I may cry,

My love for her will never die.

Tell Tommy I miss him."

Tell Laura, I Love Her (1960)

Tell Laura, I Love Her (by Dickie Lee)

Tommy and Laura were lovers.

He wanted to give her everything.

Flowers, presents, and most of all, a wedding ring.

He saw a sign for a stockcar race.

A thousand dollar prize it read.

He couldn't get Laura on the phone.

So to her mother, Tommy said,

"Tell Laura I love her.

Tell Laura I need her.

Tell Laura I may be late.

I've something to do that cannot wait."

He drove his car to the racing round.

He was the youngest driver there.

The crowd roared as they started to race.

Around the track they drove

At a deadly pace.

No one knows what happened that day.

How his car overturned in flames.

But as they pulled him from the twisted wreck.

With his dying breath, they heard him say,

"Tell Laura I love her.

Tell Laura I need her.

Tell Laura not to cry.

My love for her will never die."

Now in the chapel Laura prays

For her Tommy who passed away.

It was just for Laura that he lived and died.

Alone in the chapel, she can hear him cry,

"Tell Laura I love her.

Tell Laura I need her.

Tell Laura not to cry.

My love for her will never die.

My love for her will never die."

Roses Are Red (1960)

Roses Are Red (by Bobby Vinton)

Roses are red, my love

Doo doo da doooo ...

A long, long time ago,

On graduation day,

You handed me your book.

I signed this way,

"Roses are red, my love.

Violets are blue.

Sugar is sweet, my love.

But not as sweet as you."

We dated through high school.

And when the big day came,

I wrote into your book,

Next to my name,

"Roses are red, my love.

Violets are blue.

Sugar is sweet, my love.

But not as sweet as you."

Then I went far away,

And you found someone new.

I read your letter, dear,

And I wrote back to you,

"Roses are red, my love.

Violets are blue.

Sugar is sweet, my love.

Good luck! May God bless you."

Is that your little girl?

She looks a lot like you.

Someday some boy will write

In her book, too.

"Roses are red, my love.

Violets are blue.

Sugar is sweet, my love.

But not as sweet as you."
