Buddy Holly

Charles Hardin Holley (September 7, 1936 – February 3, 1959), known professionally as Buddy Holly, was a Texan singer-songwriter and a pioneer of rock and roll.

I found that you're a rover and it's made me blue
Like a talent scout you want a love that's new
Don't come back knockin' at my heart's closed door
Or I won't be home, don't call and knock no more
When you went away and left me all alone
While you played around, I waited at home
Don't come back knockin' at my heart?s closed door
Or I won't be home, don't call and knock no more
You had all my heart, was your very own
You weren't satisfied, now I'll go on alone
Don't come back knockin' at my heart's closed door
Or I won't be home, don't call and knock no more
Pity those with hearts so empty and cold
To never know true love, a treasure to hold
Don't come back knockin' at my heart's closed door
Or I won't be home, don't call and knock no more
