UTHRILLME - The DeCastro Sisters

From WIKIPEDIA

The DeCastro Sisters were a female singing group: they consisted of Peggy, Cherie, and Babette DeCastro. (When Babette retired in 1958, a cousin, Olgita DeCastro Marino, replaced her.)

In 1945, the DeCastro family moved to the United States from Cuba. The sisters became protegees of Carmen Miranda, and formed a singing trio in Miami, Florida. They had a style something like the then-popular Andrews Sisters, but with a Latin flavor.

The biggest hit of the group was "Teach Me Tonight," in 1954.

Peggy, the eldest of the group, died March 6, 2004 of lung cancer at age 82.

Olgita died on February 14, 2000 at age 65.

The Lyrics

Teach Me Tonight
The DeCastro Sisters/Frank Sinatra
Writer(s): Cahn/de Paul

Did you say (that) I've got a lot to learn
Well don't think I'm trying not to learn
Since this is the perfect spot to learn
Teach me tonight

Starting with the ABC of it
Getting right down to the XYZ of it
Help me solve the mystery of it
Teach me tonight

The sky's a blackboard high above you
And if a shooting star goes by
I'll use that star to write "I love you"
A thousand times across the sky

One thing isn't very clear my love
Teachers shouldn't stand so near my love
Graduation's almost here my love
You'd better teach me tonight

I've played loves scenes in a flick or two
And I've also met a chick or two
But I still can learn a trick or two
Hey teach me tonight

I who thought I knew the score of it
Kind of think I should know much more of it
Off the wall, the bed, the floor of it
Hey teach me tonight

The midnight hours come slowly creeping
When there's no one there but you
There must be more to life than sleeping
Single in a bed for two

What I need most is post graduate
What I feel is hard to articulate
If you want me to matriculate
You'd better teach me tonight

What do you get for lessons
Teach me - come on and teach me - teach me tonight
