Lyrics - Tell Laura I Love Her by Albert West


Laura and
Tommy were lovers
He wanted to give her ev'rything:
Flowerspresents and most of alla wedding-ring !
He saw a sign for a stock car 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 r need her!
Tell
Laura ! may be late
I've something to do that cannot wait.
He drove his car to the racing grounds
He was the youngest driver there;
The crowd roared as they started the race'
Round 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 breaththey 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 praysfor her
Tommy who passed away;
It was just for
Laura`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.
