And I saw this young girl with that great tan, you know, bubbly hair and wearing a yellow top.
I was there with all my friends and this guy came in in a white suit, tanned, and great grin across his face.
And I thought, gosh, you know, he's gorgeous.
But he really feels that he's someone.
But he was so shy, he sent his friend over to ask me to dance.
He said, why don't you ask her yourself?
I'm too shy.
So anyway, he did.
He went and [Cm] asked her.
And she agreed.
I guess [C] I [F] saw it all begin.
[Fm]
[G] Engelbert and Patricia were married in 1962.
[C]
[Gb] [Fm]
[Cm] [Fm] [Bbm]
[Eb]
[Ab] [F]
[Bbm] [C]
[Bb] [Fm] [Eb] It was the era of Elvis Presley's Hound Dog and [G] Bill Haley's Rock Around the Clock.
To Engelbert's [C] dismay, he learned that there wasn't much interest for his style of singing.
[E] You know, there were times when I thought, will I ever make it?
You know, will it ever happen to me?
But my [Gb] dreams were so, [G]
[Fm] you know, I dreamt about being somebody.
And it was so strong, I said, I just didn't, I didn't give up.
But you couldn't because [Eb] he was driven with this desire.
[Eb] He [Ebm] was determined.
He used to say, I'll make it by the time [F] I'm 30.
It would be a long [Eb] uphill battle for the singer now [Bbm] known as Jerry Dorsey,
who [F] persevered through every kind of [Ebm] adversity, including a six-month near-death battle with [Abm] tuberculosis,
and nights spent sleeping [A] in public washrooms for lack of money.
[C] There were times when I would go three, four days without a meal.
And I used to sleep in the daytime and just wait for the phone to ring in the hallway.
[Abm] It was very hard.
We used to have the band [Bb] sleep in a one-room flat that we had.
All his band used to stay there as well.
Just kids they were on the road.
Every penny that he earned, and he wasn't earning very much, and he wasn't getting that much work,
but every penny that he [N] earned, he put back into the act.
He would have at least a duo backing him if he couldn't afford any more.
If he could afford three or four musicians, he would have them to back him.
And he'd give all the money to them.
And at that time, he was driving about in a rusty old van.
You know, I mean, he really was on the poverty line.
I played in places where if you didn't do very well, they'd throw glasses and beer mugs at you.
And it wasn't
there weren't easy places to play.
Just to earn some money, be in the industry.
And they just went wild for his singing.
I had a little band.
We used to play rock music and sing.
You wouldn't believe I was a rock and roll artist, right?
I was.
One evening he did fall over on his bottom, but made use of it, just slid along to the edge of the stage,
and the girls were going wild.
They thought that was it, you know.
That lasted for a while.
And I made quite a name for myself in England.
I did a television show in London.
Tom Jones was around at that particular time.
And the guy that was managing him was a gentleman called Gordon Mills.
I'd recorded a song called Stay, which I'd written myself.
He took it to Decca Records, and he says,
I've got a guy who's going to be as big as Tom Jones.
His name is Cherry Dorsey.
He said, Oh, we know Cherry Dorsey.
He's old hat.
He'll never make it.
We'll just play the record.
So they played the record.
And he said, Nah, I don't think we could use him.
So we took the record away, went back into the shop, right, and back home,
and changed the label, changed my name, put Englebert Humperdinck on it,
and took the same song back to these people.
And he said, Now, listen, forget that other guy.
I've got a new guy now.
He said, He's going to be really big.
His name is Englebert [C] Humperdinck.
He said, What?
[Eb] [N]
I was there with all my friends and this guy came in in a white suit, tanned, and great grin across his face.
And I thought, gosh, you know, he's gorgeous.
But he really feels that he's someone.
