Eddie Cochran Three Stars

Look up in the sky
Up towards the north
There are three new stars
brightly shining forth
They're shining oh so bright
from heaven above
Gee we're gonna miss you
everybody sends their love

Ritchie, you were just starting
to realize your dream.
Everyone calls me a kid,
you were only 17.
But now almighty God has called you,
oh so far away,
maybe it's to save some boy or girl
who might have gone astray.
But with your 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.

Buddy, I can still see you,
with that shy grin on your face.
Seems like your hair was always a little messed up,
kinda out of place.
Now not many people actually knew you were,
or know how you felt,
but just one song from you
could make the coldest heart melt.
You're singing for God now,
in his chorus, in the sky.
Buddy Holly, I'll always remember you
with tears in my eyes.

Gee we're gonna miss you, everybody sends their love.
I see a stout man.
The Big Bopper's is your name.
God called you to heaven, maybe for new fortune and fame. Keep wearing that big stetson hat,
and ramble up to the mike,
and don't forget those wonderful words.....
'You know what I like.'

Look up in the sky
Up towards the north
There are three new stars
brightly shining forth
They're shining oh so bright
from heaven above
Gee we're gonna miss you
everybody sends their love
