Look up in the sky
Up toward the north
There are three new stars
Brightly shining forth
They're shining so bright
From heaven above
Gee, we're gonna miss you
Everybody sends their love

On the left stand Ritchie Valens
A young boy just seventeen
Just beginning to realize
And explore his teenage dreams
Why did God call him, oh, so far away
Maybe to help some boy or girl
Who might have gone astray
With his star shining
Through the dark and lonely night
To light the path
And show the way, the way that's right

Gee, we're gonna miss you
Everybody sends their love

On the right stands Buddy Holly
With a shy grin on his face
Funny how you always seem to notice
That one little curl out of place
Not many people really knew Buddy
Or understood how he felt
But just a song from his lips
Would make the coldest heart melt
Buddy's singing for God now and His chorus in the sky
Buddy holly we'll always remember you
With tears in our eyes

Gee, we're gonna miss you
Everybody sends their love

In the middle stands a stout man
The Big Bopper is his name
Now God has called him
Perhaps to new fortune and fame
He wore a big Stetson hat
And sort of rambled up to the mic
And how can we ever forget those wonderful words
"You know what I like"

Look up in the sky
Up toward the north
There are three new stars
Brightly shining forth
They're shining so bright
From heaven above
Gee, we're gonna miss you
Everybody sends their love
