Tommy my sweetheart has gone now
He's up in the heaven somewhere
So little star high above
If you see Tommy tell him all my love

Tell Tommy I love him,
Tell Tommy I miss him
Tell him thro' I may cry,
My love for him will never die

He drove his car in the stock car race
To win money so we could wed
He wanted so much to make me his wife
Now my lovely Tom he lost his life
I'm so lonely without him near
Oh, how I miss his warm embrace
I love no other, I want him to know
Oh little star please tell him so

Although he wanted to give me the world
Why did he do such a reckless thing
Little star he should realize
I was wretched and mean when he looked into my eyes

Tell Tommy I love him,
Tell Tommy I miss him
Tell him thro' I may cry,
My love for him will never die'
