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 were gonna miss you,
Everybody sends their love.
On February the third, 1959,
Three rock 'n' roll stars were killed in an air crash.
Their names were Richie Valens who was only seventeen,
The Big Bopper,
And a man to whom we'd like to pay tribute, right now,
The late, great, Buddy Holly.
