Oh Buddy letra

Do do do, do do do do do
(Ch) Oh Buddy it's a shame you took that flight 'cos I need another song
And I need it here tonight
I've played 'Peggy Sue' to death even though I really love that tune
Oh Buddy, shame you died so soon

I took my guitar to the party, everybody asked me to play
I knew fine that's all that I'd been asked for, but I don't have pride enough to stay away
If you play guitar you'll know what I mean when I say it was the usual scene
No one pays the piper but they always call the tune
And it's a shame that Buddy Holly died so soon

(Ch)

(Bridge) I know if he'd lived longer he'd have left us with more songs
And perhaps these ears are jaded and I do the poor man wrong

But I've heard and played them all so much I'll knock it on the head
And go and get another drink or find a girl instead
But while you've played the night away the alcohol's all gone
The girls have too there's nothing left
Except another song

(Ch)
