Day 15- Roy Orbison

Roy Orbison was unique. At age six, his dad gave him a guitar. Age eight, Orbison wrote his first song. He dropped out of college to pursue singing, and by 1963 was touring the UK with the Beatles. The first night he opened for the Beatles, Roy Orbison performed fourteen encores! The Beatles found him a hard act to follow. He had bad eyesight and forgot his glasses one night of the UK tour, so resorted to his sunglasses. That's how the glasses became part of his look. His music is timeless, and that's why I chose him. R.I.P Roy. We miss you.

ROY ORBISON LYRICS
"Oh, Pretty Woman"

Pretty woman, walking down the street
Pretty woman, the kind I like to meet
Pretty woman
I don't believe you, you're not the truth
No one could look as good as you
Mercy

Pretty woman, won't you pardon me
Pretty woman, I couldn't help see
Pretty woman
That you look lovely as can be
Are you lonely just like me
Wow

Pretty woman, stop a while
Pretty woman, talk a while
Pretty woman, give your smile to me
Pretty woman, yeah yeah yeah
Pretty woman, look my way
Pretty woman, say you'll stay with me
'Cause I need you, I'll treat you right
Come with me baby, be mine tonight

Pretty woman, don't walk on by
Pretty woman, don't make me cry
Pretty woman, don't walk away, hey...okay
If that's the way it must be, okay
I guess I'll go on home, it's late
There'll be tomorrow night, but wait
What do I see
Is she walking back to me
Yeah, she's walking back to me
Oh, oh, Pretty woman
