The Lyrics
A tribute to comedian, Red Buttons, who passed away recently at the age of 87
Red Buttons, great comedic style
You gave us laughs and smiles of fun
A plus factor, a great actor
For film, "Sayonara" an Oscar, you won
Clean humor, for the average folks,
Hilarious, the jokes, you'd tell
So funny on Dean Martin Roasts
Kidding guests and hosts
Those "Had No Dinner" toasts,
Red Buttons, farewell...
You gave us laughs and smiles of fun
A plus factor, a great actor
For film, "Sayonara" an Oscar, you won
Clean humor, for the average folks,
Hilarious, the jokes, you'd tell
So funny on Dean Martin Roasts
Kidding guests and hosts
Those "Had No Dinner" toasts,
Red Buttons, farewell...

nice job...i dug red...does anybody but me remember that TV show "the secret life of henry phyfe" ?
Awesome! I'm not sure "funny" is an appropriate way to rate this song, so I gave it a five anyway for great choice of words.
As was said by another poster, I'm not sure "funny" applies to this but it's a great eulogy for a great talent. Thank you...!
Thanks, alvin...can't say I remember that one...and thanks, Weird Bob, and hec
Good use of such a pretty song. Does anybody remember his recording of "Strange things are happening."?
Nice tribute to a good comic. I remember the song 2Eagle mentioned.
Thanks, 2Eagle, yeah, I recall that oldie...Wasn't that the "Ho ho, hee hee," thing....similar to the old Pinky Lee kid show theme............and thanks, PMS
