Johny T. Angel Tell Laura I love her Lyrics

Laura and Tommy were lovers
He wanted to give her everything
Flowers, present and and most of all, a wedding ring
He saw a sign for stock car race
A thousand dollar prizze it read
He couldn't get Laura on the phone
So to her mother, Tommy said
"Tell Laura I love her, Laura I need her, Laura I may be late
I've something to do that can not wait "
He drove his car to the racing ground
He was the yungest driver there
The crowd roared as they started the race
Round the track they drove at a deadly pace
No one knos hat happaned that day
How his car overturnned in flames
But as they pulled him for the twisted wreck
With his dying breath, they heard him say

"Tell Laura I love her, 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 he lived and died
alone in the chapel she can hear him cry

"Tell Laura I love her, Laura I need her, tell Laura not to cry, my love for her will never die "
