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 stands 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, 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 upon 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
In 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 mike
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
