We'll remember you forever eddie
Through the sacrifice you made
We can't beleive the price you paid
For love...

Little eddie meddie[?] born in jersey city
Started singing when he was 5
Never knew his father mother didn't bother
To catch his last name fast as he came

He was ofter crying times were really tryin'
Eddie left his mother alone
Soon there'd be a mystery soon a baby sister
His mother kept on swingin and eddie kept on singing
A-aaaaaaaaah (shoowop shoowop) la la la laaaaaaaa
La la la laaaaaaaaaaaa

[spoken in english with a spanish accent]
And now the tragic story... eddie's sister mary louise needed an operation.
To get the money he would have to become an overnight sensation.
Eddie beleived the american people had wonderful love giving hearts.
His well publicized end he considered would send his memorial album to the top of the charts... and it did!
A-aaaaaaaaah (shoowop shoowop) la la la laaaaaaaa
La la la laaaaaa laaaaaa
Shoowop shoowop aaaaaaaah shoowop shoowop
La la la laaaaaaaa
La la la laaaaaa laaaaaa
Goodbye... goodbye...

When a young singer dies to our shock and surprise in a plane crash or flashy sports car. he becomes quite well known and the kindness he's shown
Made more than one post-mortem star. well you did it eddie.
And though it's hard to applaud suicide_you gave all you could give
So your sister could live. all america's choked up inside mon!

[back to singing]
We'll remember you forever eddie
Through the sacrifice you made
We can't beleive the price you paid
For love...
For love...
For love...

[a single clap pierces the silence/then applause erupts]
