I hear the cottonwoods whisperin' above,
"Tammy ... Tammy ...
Tammy's in love"
The ole hooty-owl
hooty-hoos to the dove,
"Tammy ... Tammy ...
Tammy's in love".
Does my lover feel
What I feel
When he comes near?
My heart beats so joyfully,
You'd think that he could hear.
Wish I knew if he knew
What I'm dreamin' of
Tammy ... Tammy ... Tammy's in love.
Whippoorwill, whippoorwill, you and I know
Tammy ... Tammy ... can't let him go
The breeze from the bayou keeps murmuring low:
"Tammy ... Tammy ...
you love him so".
When the night is warm,
Safe and warm,
I long for his charms
I'd sing like a violin
If I were in his arms.
Wish I knew if he knew
What I'm dreaming of
Tammy ... Tammy ...
Tammy's in love
The top song this week in 1958:
"Volare" by Domenico Modugno
The top song this week in 1959:
"The Three Bells", by The Browns
There's a village hidden deep in the valley Among the pine trees half forlorn And there on a sunny morning Little Jimmy Brown was born
All the chapel bells were ringing In the little valley town And the songs that they were singing Were for baby Jimmy Brown Then the little congregation Prayed for guidance from above Lead us not into temptation, Bless this hour of meditation Guide him with eternal love
There's a village hidden deep in the valley Beneath the mountains high above And there, twenty years thereafter Jimmy was to meet his love
All the chapel bells were ringing, Was a great day in his life Cause the songs that they were singing Were for Jimmy and his wife Then the little congregation Prayed for guidance from above Lead us not into temptation, Bless oh Lord this celebration May their lives be filled with love
From the village hidden deep in the valley One rainy morning dark and gray A soul winged its way to heaven Jimmy Brown had passed away
Just a lonely bell was ringing In the little valley town Twas farewell that it was singing To our good old Jimmy Brown And the little congregation Prayed for guidance from above Lead us not into temptation, May his soul find the salvation Of thy great eternal love"
The top song this week in 1960:
"It's Now or Never", Elvis Presley
It's now or never, come hold me tight Kiss me my darling, be mine tonight Tomorrow will be too late, it's now or never My love won't wait.
When I first saw you with your smile so tender My heart was captured, my soul surrendered I'd spend a lifetime waiting for the right time Now that your near the time is here at last.
It's now or never, come hold me tight Kiss me my darling, be mine tonight Tomorrow will be too late, it's now or never My love won't wait.
Just like a willow, we would cry an ocean If we lost true love and sweet devotion Your lips excite me, let your arms invite me For who knows when we'll meet again this way
It's now or never, come hold me tight Kiss me my darling, be mine tonight Tomorrow will be too late, it's now or never My love won't wait.
Penso che un sogno cosi` non ritorni mai piu`,
mi dipingevo le mani e la faccia di blu.
Poi d'improvviso venivo dal vento rapito,
e incominciavo a volare nel cielo infinito.
Volare, oh oh,
cantare, oh oh oh oh.
Nel blu dipinto di blu,
felice di stare lassu`.
E volavo volavo felice
piu` in alto del sole ed ancora piu` su
mentre il mondo pian piano spariva
lontano laggiu`.
Una musica dolce suonava soltanto per me.
Volare, oh oh
cantare, oh oh oh oh.
Nel blu dipinto di blu
felice di stare lassu`.
Ma tutti i sogni nell'alba svaniscon perche`
quando tramonta la luna li porta con se`.
Ma io continuo a sognare negli occhi tuoi belli
che sono blu come un cielo trapunto di stelle...
Volare, oh oh
cantare, oh oh oh oh.
Nel blu degli occhi tuoi blu
felice di stare quaggiu`.
E continuo a volare felice
piu` in alto del sole ed ancora piu` su
mentre il mondo pian piano scompare
negli occhi tuoi blu
La tua voce e` una musica dolce che suona per me...
Volare, oh oh
cantare, oh oh oh oh.
Nel blu degli occhi tuoi blu
felice di stare quaggiu`.
Nel blu degli occhi tuoi blu
felice di stare quaggiu`.
