| Parody Written by: | Alvin Rhodes |
...buddy literally speaks about the day he dies...
that'll be the day
when i say goodbye
that'll be the day
when my fans will cry
too quick, i had to leave
the world wondered why
but...that'll be the day...that i die
well, the plane ran into trouble
and it...took a tumble
landed rough and quickly
it was bloody rude
you know i'll miss my lady
and my...unborn baby
emotions swelled...when i was through
well, that'll be the day
when i dared to fly
that'll be the day
when at peace, i lie
first week of February
in nineteen-five-nine
yeah...that'll be the day...that i die
the plane did, downward, dart
that's when the trouble starts
the cabin came apart
and out we flew
the field was lonely
and the...wind blew coldly
that sad day just makes me blue
that'll be the day
when i say goodbye
that'll be the day
when my fans will cry
too quick, i had to leave
the world wondered why
but...that'll be the day...that i die
that'll be the day...boo hoo
that'll be the day...boo hoo
that'll be the day...boo hoo
that'll be the day...that i die
when i say goodbye
that'll be the day
when my fans will cry
too quick, i had to leave
the world wondered why
but...that'll be the day...that i die
well, the plane ran into trouble
and it...took a tumble
landed rough and quickly
it was bloody rude
you know i'll miss my lady
and my...unborn baby
emotions swelled...when i was through
well, that'll be the day
when i dared to fly
that'll be the day
when at peace, i lie
first week of February
in nineteen-five-nine
yeah...that'll be the day...that i die
the plane did, downward, dart
that's when the trouble starts
the cabin came apart
and out we flew
the field was lonely
and the...wind blew coldly
that sad day just makes me blue
that'll be the day
when i say goodbye
that'll be the day
when my fans will cry
too quick, i had to leave
the world wondered why
but...that'll be the day...that i die
that'll be the day...boo hoo
that'll be the day...boo hoo
that'll be the day...boo hoo
that'll be the day...that i die

Great idea...using one of his biggest hits for a tribute...and very well done...A real tragedy what happened to Holly, and the others...comparable to the James Dean loss in the same decade. Also lost Hank Williams..The "Fifties" seemed to be the Doom decade for celebrities and performers
: ( good parody, though. : ) 5's
Fives but not for humor. Good account.
thanks AFW....yep, cars, planes and drugs have taken plenty of stars...thanks adagio...i'm too young to remember when the crash actually occured but one of the first songs i can remember was "peggy sue"
unfortunately prescient song title on Holly's part... maybe this shoulda' posted 3 February, the day the music died? great job... 555
thanks poster...yeah, that would have been the day is shoulda done it
Clever and touching.
thanks johnny
Good idea alvin. Now you can start a series starting with Ritchie Valens and J.P. "the big bopper" Richardson. Then there's always Jim Croce and Ricky Nelson...well I guess the list really could go on...
thanks IB
