Lyrics

Richard Justice
To the tune of Johnny Angel
(Shelly Fabares 1962)
Lyrics by Steffi Rubin

Richie Justice, Richie Justice, Richie Justice, Richie Justice
You’re an angel to Jeanne

Richard Justice
Jeannie loves you
There’s a sigh when you are introduced
Reminiscent of the sigh from Liz
When she hears Bruce

Jeanne shouts “Richie!”
And she tingles
And her voice takes on a diff’rent tone
And her heart begins to fly
Each time that Richie phones

She’s in heaven, she gets carried away
You see it on her face on News Channel Eight
Other callers—she enjoys what they say, but
She just sits and waits to hear ‘bout Op’ning Day from

Richard Justice
Jeannie loves you
You’re her boy of summertime, it’s true
We look forward to “Hi Richie!”
Every interview

“Hi Richie!” “Hi Richie!” “Hi Richie!”

    that ending is PERFECT! I can't stop laughing. the whole concept of this song is wonderful. they have to play this when's he's on and she's in studio. right? they have to.

    Great all around. The "She just sits and waits..." line is really cool in terms of how the phrasing falls... both in terms of the writing and the delivery.

    This is great. Way to go Steffi and Joe! Let's hope Jeanne is on the next time Richie is on. The "Hi Richie" at the end kills me.
