Laura and Tommy
Were lovers
He wanted to give her
Everything
Flowers
Presents
And most of all
A wedding ring
He saw a sign
For a stock car race
A thousand dollar
Prize it read
He couldn't get Laura
On the phone
So to her mother
Tommy said
Tell Laura
I love her
Tell Laura
I need her
Tell Laura
I may be late
I've something to do
That cannot wait
He drove his car
To the racing grounds
He was the youngest
Driver there
The crowed roared
As they started the race
'Round the track they drove
At a deadly pace
No one knows
What happened that day
How his car
Overturned in flames
But as they pulled him
From the twisted wreck
With his dying breath
They heard him say
Tell Laura
I love her
Tell Laura
I need her
Tell Laura
Not to cry
My love for her
Will never die
And in the chapel
Where Laura prays
For Tommy
Who passed away
It was
Just
For Laura
He lived and died
Alone in the chapel
She can hear him cry
Tell Laura
I love her
Tell Laura
I need her
Tell Laura
Not to cry
My love for her
Will never die
Tell Laura
I love her
Tell Laura
I love her
Tell Laura
I love her
