Lonely Teardrops Lyrics
Shooby Doo Wop ba baa (Hey hey)
Shooby Doo Wop ba baa (Hey hey)
Shooby Doo Wop ba baa (Hey hey)
My heart Is cryin', cryin'
Lonely teardrops
My pillows never dry of
Lonely teardrops
Come home, come home
Just say you will, say you will (Say you will)
Say you will (Say you will)
Hey, Hey (Say you will)
My heart Is cryin', cryin'
Lonely teardrops
My pillows never dry of
Lonely teardrops
Come home, come home
Just say you will, say you will (Say you will)
Say you will (Say you will)
Hey, Hey (Say you will)
Just give me another chance
For our romance
Come on and tell me
That one day you'll return
'Cause everyday that you've been gone away
You'll know my heart does nothing but burn
Shooby Doo Wop ba baa (Hey hey)
Shooby Doo Wop ba baa (Hey hey)
My heart Is cryin', cryin'
Lonely teardrops
My pillows never dry of
Lonely teardrops
Come home, come home
Just say you will, say you will (Say you will)
Say you will (Say you will)
Hey, Hey (Say you will)
My heart Is cryin', cryin'
Lonely teardrops
My pillows never dry of
Lonely teardrops
Come home, come home
Just say you will, say you will (Say you will)
Say you will (Say you will)
Hey, Hey (Say you will)
Just give me another chance
For our romance
Come on and tell me
That one day you'll return
'Cause everyday that you've been gone away
You'll know my heart does nothing but burn
Crying
Lonely Teardrops
My pillows never dry of
Lonely Teardrops
Come home, come home
Just say you will, say you will (Say you will)
Say you will (Say you will)
Hey, Hey (Say you will)
Say it right now baby (Say you will)
Come on, come on (Say you will)
Say it darling, yeah (Say you will)
Lonely Teardrops
My pillows never dry of
Lonely Teardrops
Come home, come home
Just say you will, say you will (Say you will)
Say you will (Say you will)
Hey, Hey (Say you will)
Say it right now baby (Say you will)
Come on, come on (Say you will)
Say it darling, yeah (Say you will)
About
Genius Annotation
This song alongside a few other singles released between 1957-58 launched Wilson into R&B superstardom. The song became his first top ten hit on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number seven.
In 2011 Rolling Stone listed the song at 315 on its 500 Greatest Songs Of All Time list.
On September 29, 1975, Wilson collapsed in the middle of performing this song at a New Jersey nightclub. By sheer coincidence he was singing the line “My heart is cryin” as he collapsed. It was later determined he had suffered a heart attack. As a result, he fell into a coma from which he never recovered, dying almost nine years later on January 21, 1984.
