Alley Oop Lyrics - The Doughnut In Granny's Greenhouse - Bonzo Dog Band

Laura and Tommy were lovers 

He wanted to give her everything 

Flowers, presents and most of all a wedding ring 

He saw a sign for a stock car race 

A thousand dollar prize it read 

He couldn't get Laura on the phone 

So to her mother Tommy said 

Tell Laura I love her, tell Laura I need her 

Tell Laura I may be late 

I've something to do that cannot wait 

He drove his car to the racing ground 

He was the youngest driver there 

The crowed roared as they started the race 

Round the track they drove at a deadly pace 

No one knows what happened that day 

How his car overturned in flames 

But as they pulled him from the twisted wreck 

With his dying breath, they heard him say 

Tell Laura I love her, tell Laura I need her 

Tell Laura not to cry 

My love for her will never die 

Now in the chapel where Laura prays 

For her Tommy who passed away 

It was just for Laura he lived and died 

Alone in the chapel she can hear him cry 

Tell Laura I love her, tell Laura I need her 

Tell Laura not to cry 

My love for her will never die 

Tell Laura I love her 

Tell Laura I need her
