Remembering Debbie Reynolds
 |
 |
Mary Frances Reynolds of El Paso, Texas, became the screen actress Debbie Reynolds commencing a career at MGM at age 16.
Joining Gene Kelly in Singin' in the Rain in the year of 1952 with her quick study abilities she became an accomplished dancer before the age of twenty.
She passed from a stroke on December 28, 2016, but a day after the death of her daughter Carrie Fisher.
It was a sad moment for me personally and marked the end of a career based on more talent and none of that risque behavior too many of today's film artists rely on nowadays to hold the attention of their audience.
Tammy
I hear the cottonwoods whisperin' above
Tammy, Tammy, Tammy's in love
The old hootie owl hootie-hoo's to the dove
Tammy, Tammy, Tammy's in love
Does my lover feel what I feel when he comes near?
My heart beats so joyfully
You'd think that he could hear
Wish I knew if he knew what I'm dreaming of
Tammy, Tammy, Tammy's in love
Whippoorwill, whippoorwill, you and I know
Tammy, Tammy can't let him go
The breeze from the bayou keeps murmuring low
Tammy, Tammy, you love him so
When the night is warm, soft and warm
I long for his charms
I'd sing like a violin
If I were in his arms
Wish I knew if he knew what I'm dreaming of
Tammy, Tammy, Tammy's in love
