Lyrics

When I was 7, (in 1977), I used to play all of my dad's vinyl on my very own Fisher Price kid turntable. Still remember spinning this one in particular, from the ROSES ARE RED album (1962)....

Tony, he's Mister Tony
he used to write columns
for the Post
we call him Tony, he's Mister Tony
he won't do "THE FACEBOOK"
but his steaks he will toast....
He's got some emails, a couple of faxes
he'll read some notes, for all of you folks
That's Mister Tony, the one and only
it's time for the Mailbag, take us home......

By Joe Aro/Ellicott City, MD
Parody of Bobby Vinton's "MR. LONELY"

    All I can say is I am not sending Nigel another jingle for weeks because there just won't be room to air them all. Everything posted just today alone is killer. This has to go on soon. Super terrific, Joe.

    Not sure how it works, but I suppose I am 25 percent Polish since my Dad was half and his Mom was 100 percent, and there you see why I was playing Vinton records at the age of 7.....

    Joe, you never fail to crack me up. When will I see "Joe Arro Sings" for sale on QVC? Some time ago I sent them a note to inform them that Buckwheat's "Oona Pa Noona Banca" comes from none other than Bobby Vinton - his Una Paloma Blanca Polka. Used to see that damn commercial every 15 minutes as a kid.
