Roy Orbison
1936-1988

Vernon Texas he first saw light
born with very poor eyesight.
At six years he acquired a guitar
bids childish dreams au revoir.

At eight years a radio show
audiences, a reciprocal quid pro quo.
By the late forties hosted it
feeling confident he could acquit.

Moving to Wink a Texas place
oil wells, grease, the rat race.
The Wink Westerners he help form
on local radio performed.

Not a life disaster free
of his family he lost three.
A wife two sons killed
peace of mind unfulfilled.

Close friends, Presley, Martin Sheen
competition tough keen.
Only the Lonely his first big hit
making a comeback his heart quit.
