THE LATE BOBBY DARIN BLUES

(Robert A. Wilders)

(CHORUS)
Well you can be whoever it is you wanna be.
You can see whoever it is you wanna see.
Don’t sing no songs if you can’t pay your dues.
Just go on singing those Bobby Darin blues.

Now Bobby was a singer
And he sang all over the land.
He traveled ‘round in a bus.
For all those one night stands.
He wrote a song that I could sympathize with.
When he performed well he performed he always gave his best.

(repeat chorus)

Now Bobby could bare his soul
Like only few of us can.
And for awhile, just awhile.
He wouldn’t conform to the man.
He even dropped out for awhile no one could understand.
But he came back cause he had the itch to perform with a band.

(repeat chorus)

Now Bobby was an actor.
And he was pretty good.
Why he never won an Oscar.
I’ve never understood.
It couldn’t have been cause he had Gidget for a wife.
It didn’t matter cause music, yeah music was his life.

(repeat chorus)

Now Bobby’s not with us.
He’s gone to entertain in the sky.
With a lot of other folks.
That we all could identify...with.
And I can’t help thinking ‘bout the way he went down.
Singing his song, getting along, goin’ from town to town.

(repeat chorus)
