1:56
single, 1957
Written by Fats Domino and Dave Bartholomew
A sad sack's song, the eternal loser still looking hopefully to the future. "One day you'll cry / I won't come back to you," he warns, eroding the threat instantly in the next breath: "You've got such a great big beautiful eye / But I love to see you when you smile." Vibrant, jazzy horns punch bright lines under the Fat Man's jovial vocals, with a sweet new Orleans sax solo in the middle.
