I was sorta wondering darlin' do you miss me tonight
Wondering are you all alone and blue?
I was kinda reminiscing darling how your eyes used to light
When I touched you and whispered I love you

There's no reason my darlin' for us to drift apart
I can't rely on faith to heal my worn out heart
I was sorta wondering please miss me tonight
Wondering do you feel like I do

There was no reason my darlin' for us to drift apart
I can't rely on faith to heal my broken heart
I was sorta wondering darlin' do you miss me tonight
Wondering do you feel like I do

Jerry Lee Lewis was a leading figure in the popularization of rock & roll during the 1950s. He was first signed to Sun Records in 1956 where he was labelmates with Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Roy Orbison, and other early rock artists. Of those musicians, however, he was the only piano player and combined with his heavy-handed playing style, sexually suggestive lyrics, and provocative stage antics he came to epitomize the rebelliousness of the genre.

He rose to international fame for his 1957 versions of the songs “Great Balls of Fire” and “Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On.”

Lewis' popularity rapidly tumbled, however, when in 1958, when at the age of 22, he married his 13-year-old cousin. Though this scandal continued to tarnish his image, Lewis never retired from music. As of October 2015, he continues to perform live.
