The Velvets

The Velvets were an American doo wop group from Odessa in Ector County in west Texas. The African American quintet was formed in 1959 by Virgil Johnson, a high school English teacher, with four of his students.Roy Orbison heard the group and signed them to Monument Records in 1960. Their first release was a tune called "That Lucky Old Sun". Their biggest hit single was "Tonight (Could Be the Night)", which hit #26 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1961. The follow-up, "Laugh", peaked at #90, and after a half-dozen further singles the group disbanded. more »

I'm gone, fate
Faded away
I'm wrong, changed
Changed for the day

Finally ive got you, in spirit in my head
Crossing the border
Putting your feelings to bed
And im gone
And im gone

Escaping, i'll leave a trail of spots
Easier to find
Means youll miss me by a long shot
I speak in tongoues, i try to get in your way,
When the
Sun goes
Black turn
Around
Tell me you'll stay

And youre gone, and im gone

Its too late, im three sheets to the wind
Down on these grounds, is where i lay my head
Weary inside
Magic speaks for me
Cold as ice, i'll wait

Its too late, im three sheets to the wind
Down on these grounds
Is where i lay my head
And i know, i will never learn
The answers stay the same
Speak out and believe, my ways

Its too late, im three sheets to the wind
I'm good inside blooded bashery
Shut up, and believe
I'll tell you what to say
Open up my cage, and pray
