DANA #23 - Lipstick On Your Collar 1987 video free download

DANA on the Tom O'Connor Show in 1987, performing another single taken from her 1950s covers album, released in 1985 on the Ritz label, If I Give My Heart To You. It was originally a hit for Connie Francis in 1959 (US #5 & UK #3). DANA's version failed to make the charts, even in Ireland.

According to Ritz catalogue numbers, this single was #159 and Come Back To Me was the A-side (listed first). That track is not on the album, so it could be the song she also performed on a Tom O'Connor show, while dressed in a blue jacket, and she told him it was the first A-side she had written herself (Baby Come Back To Me?). The video was once uploaded by bondbrookebond but is now deleted!

Update: On 12 Oct 2013 DANA #52 - Baby Come Back To Me 1987 was uploaded.

George Goehring composed the music for Lipstick and Edna Lewis wrote the lyrics:

When you left me all alone

At the record hop

Told me you were going out

For a soda pop

You were gone for quite awhile

Half an hour or more

You came back

And boy, oh boy

This is what I saw

Lipstick on your collar

Told a tale on you

Lipstick on your collar

Said you were untrue

Bet your bottom dollar

You and I are through

'Cause lipstick on your collar

Told a tale on you

You said it belonged to me

Made me stop and think

And then I noticed yours was red

Mine was baby pink

Who walked in but Mary Jane

Lipstick all a mess

Were you smoochin' my best friend

I guess the answer's yes

Lipstick on your collar

Told a tale on you

Lipstick on your collar

Said you were untrue

Bet your bottom dollar

You and I are through

'Cause lipstick on your collar

Told a tale on you

Bet your bottom dollar

You and I are through

'Cause lipstick on your collar

Told a tale on you

Yes, lipstick on your collar

Told a tale on you

Yes, lipstick on your collar

Told a tale on you
