Ol Blue Eyes
You're a long way from Hoboken
but close to our hearts
Energy, style, pizazz
you sang with such feeling and spark
hometown boy makes good
from England, Italy, France to Hollywood
the legend grew
but hey! it's not over,
I've lots more listening to do!
I've got my dad's records and tapes
he loved you so
Dad's "up there" too, now,
waiting for the show
Sammy and Dean, they
were "oh, so keen"
Trio's together now
front and center
I'm sure in heaven
it's a night to remember
I bet it was quite a blast!
Don't worry, Frankie
your light won't fade into the past
Oh, and would you tell my dad
after the show,
tell him I love him and miss him so
his eyes were blue, just like you
when I hear your name,
I think of him, too!
be sure and speak to him after the show
I'll miss you both forever,
and wish you didn't have to go
Ratpack's somewhere beyond Mars,
and Frankie's singing
somewhere in the stars
