23 May 05 - 03:04 AM (#1491059) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Dear Rita Hayword From: Joe Offer That's Susan Hayward - Rita Hayworth. The song by the New Vaudeville Band is "Dear Rita Hayworth," but I can't find it, either. Personally, I think Rita was the most beautiful woman that ever lived. My favorite Hayworth movie is Cover Girl,, with Gene Kelly and an amazing performance by Phil Silvers. Who knew that Sgt. Bilko could sing and dance? -Joe Offer- |

24 May 05 - 12:17 AM (#1491689) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Dear Rita Hayword From: Bill D no doubt there ARE 500 people who can't spell, never see what they are reading, and don't bother to look it up before they put the wrong name on a web site.... Google is an extraordinary window on the carelessness and ignorance that pervades a portion of the population. |

25 May 05 - 01:34 AM (#1492569) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Dear Rita Hayworth From: Tannywheeler Phil Silvers (Sargeant? Sergeant? What's the correct spelling of the Army NCO rating? Bilko.) had begun developing his multitude of talents in Vaudeville, before there was ever TV. Quite a goodly number of the early TV greats had that education. Yes, Rita Hayworth was a stunner. And had more than her looks to recommend her. Tw |

22 Sep 12 - 05:23 PM (#3408815) Subject: Lyr Add: DEAR RITA HAYWORTH (New Vaudeville Band) From: Jim Dixon Here's my transcription from the video on YouTube – see link above. I'm not sure about the line "hot water and a telephone". It sounds like "hot water on the telephone" but that made no sense to me. DEAR RITA HAYWORTH As sung by the New Vaudeville Band 1. Dear Rita Hayworth: I'm sending off this letter to the USA. I thought you like to know That I saw you in the daily press today. 2. Do you still make movies? Could you send a picture for my bedroom wall? If ever you're in England, You'd be welcome if you'd like to call. BRIDGE: You won't find no other girl Sharing my room with me. I have hot water and a telephone, And though I guess you'd think I'm more than slightly mad, If you could drop a line, I'd be so glad. 3. Dear Rita Hayworth: Surely I must be your number-one fan. For twenty-seven years I've loved you ev'ry way that I can. [The New Vaudeville Band were a one-hit wonder; they recorded "Winchester Cathedral" in 1966.] |

Not as big a star as Rita, but SO beautiful, the object of my early teenage fantasies. |
