Goodbye, Eddie, Goodbye

We'll remember you forever Eddie

Through the sacrifice you made we can't believe the price you paid

For loveLittle Eddie Mitty born in Jersey City

Started singin' when he was five

Never knew his father mother didn't bother

To catch his last name fast as he cameHe was off and flying

Times were really trying

Eddie and his mother alone

Soon another mister soon a baby sister

Mama kept swingin' and Eddie kept singin'Ah ya ya ya ya ya

Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya

Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya

Ya ya ya ya for love for loveAnd 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 believed the American people

Had wonderful, lovegiving hearts

His well publicized end he considered would send

His memorial album to the top of the charts...and it didAh ya ya ya ya ya

Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya

Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya

Ya ya ya ya for love for loveWhen 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 has 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 insideWe'll remember you forever Eddie

Thru' the sacrifice you made we can't believe the price you paid

For love
