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 »

If they made me a king I'd be but a slave to you.
If I had everything I'd still be a slave to you.
If I ruled the night, stars and moon so bright.
Still I'd turn the light to you.

If the world to me bowed yet humbly I'd flee to you.
If my friends were a crowd I'd turn in my need to you.
If I rulled the earth, what would life be worth
If I hadn't the right to you.
