Marty his father in the boxing game,
Sicilian Italian, not destined for fame,
Dolly his mother a Genoa child,
A charmer, Dolly won when she smiled.

A thirteen pound whopper, Sinatra was born,
Forceps used, an ear torn,
Sinatra preferred granny too mama or dad,
A solitary child, often sad,.

With the Hoboken Four he starts his climb,
Bobby soxing girls asking him to sign,
The other group members roughing him up,
Jealousy causing the eventual breakup.

Sinatra was confident, ambitious, tough,
Shrewd, clear headed, the right stuff,
I’ll Never Smile Again, tops the charts.
He knew he was there, in everyone’s hearts.

Sinartra made 56 big screen movies.
He was also Reprise Records founder
