Three Stars

Three Stars - Sophie Tucker

Look up in the sky

Up to one who knows

There are three new stars

Brightly shining forth

They're shining so bright

From Heaven above

Gee we're gonna miss you

Everybody sends their love

On the left stands Ritchie Valens

A young boy

Just seventeen

Just beginning to realize and explore

All his teenage dreams

Why did God call him

Oh so far away

Maybe to help some boy or girl who

Might have gone astray

With his star shining

Through the dark and lonely night

To light the path

And show the way

The way that's right

Gee we're gonna miss you

Everybody sends their love

On the right stands Buddy Holly

With a shy grin on his face

Funny how you always seem to notice that

One little curl out of place

Not many people really knew Buddy or

Understood how he felt

But just a song from his lips

Would make the coldest heart melt

Buddy's singing for God now and

His chorus in the sky

Buddy Holly we'll always remember you

With tears in our eyes

Gee we're gonna miss you

Everybody sends their love

In the middle stands a stout man

The Big Bopper is his name

Now God has called him

Perhaps to new fortune and fame

He wore a big Stetson hat

And sort of rambled up to the mike

And how can we ever forget those wonderful words

You know what I like

Look up in the sky

Up to one who knows

There are three new stars

Brightly shining forth

They're shining so bright

From Heaven above

Gee we're gonna miss you

Everybody sends their love
