Tell Laura I love her Ray Peterson
Laura and Tommy were lovers Laura and Tommy were lovers
He wanted to give her everything He wanted to give her everything
Flowers, presents and most of all, Flowers, presents and most of all,
a wedding ring a wedding ring
He saw a sign for a stock car race He saw a sign for a stock car race
A thousand-dollar prize it read A thousand-dollar prize it read
He couldn't get Laura on the phone He couldn't get Laura on the phone
So to her mother, Tommy said : So to her mother, Tommy said :
Tell Laura I love her Tell Laura I love her
Tell Laura I need her Tell Laura I need her
Tell Laura I may be late Tell Laura I may be late
I've something to do that can not wait I've something to do that can not wait
He drove his car to the racing ground He drove his car to the racing ground
He was the youngest driver there He was the youngest driver there
The crowd roared as they started the race The crowd roared as they started the race
'Round the track they drove at a deadly pace 'Round the track they drove at a deadly pace
No one knows what happened that day No one knows what happened that day
How his car over-turned in flames How his car over-turned in flames
But as they pulled him from the twisted wreck But as they pulled him from the twisted wreck
With his dying breath, they heard him say: With his dying breath, they heard him say:
Tell Laura I love her Tell Laura I love her
Tell Laura I need her Tell Laura I need her
Tell Laura not to cry Tell Laura not to cry
My love for her will never die My love for her will never die
Now in the chapel where Laura prays Now in the chapel where Laura prays
for her Tommy who passed away for her Tommy who passed away
It was just for Laura, he lived and died It was just for Laura, he lived and died
Alone in the chapel, she can hear him cry: Alone in the chapel, she can hear him cry:
Tell Laura I love her…… Tell Laura I love her……
