Throwing back to the week of March 20, 1954, we find Jo Stafford and Doris Day hanging on the the #1 and #2 spots with ‘Make Love to Me‘ and ‘Secret Love,’ respectively.
At #3 that week, and kicking around the top ten for awhile, was a song I’ve seen listed in a number of different ways: ‘I Get So Lonely (Oh Baby Mine),’ ‘Oh Baby Mine (I Get So Lonely),’ ‘I Get So Lonely When I Dream About You (Oh Baby Mine).’ Whatever the name, it’s a catchy doo wop song by vocal group The Four Knights.
The Charlotte, North Carolina, based quartet had been performing for a decade with increasing success when they released this song, their biggest hit.
Old songs. Great memories.

(Oh, baby mine)
(Oh, baby mine)
(Oh, baby mine)
[Chorus]
(Oh, baby mine)
I get so lonely when I dream about you
Can’t do without you
That’s why I dream about you
If I could only put my arms about you
Life would be so fair
[Verse 1]
(If you were there)
We two could hug and kiss
And never tire, I’m on fire
You are my one desire
I get so lonely when I dream about you
Why can’t you be there
[Verse 2]
Tossin’ and turnin’ in my slumber
(Oh, baby)
Holding you it seems
(Oh, baby)
I give you kisses without number
But only in my dreams
[Chorus]
(Oh, baby mine)
I get so lonely when I dream about you
Can’t do without you
That’s why I dream about you
If I could only put my arms about you
Life would be so fair
[Verse 2]
Tossin’ and turnin’ in my slumber
(Oh, baby)
Holding you it seems
(Oh, baby)
I give you kisses without number
But only in my dreams
[Chorus]
(Oh, baby mine)
I get so lonely when I dream about you
Can’t do without you
That’s why I dream about you
If I could only put my arms about you
Life would be so fair
[Outro]
(Oh, baby mine)
Life would be so fair
(Oh, baby mine)
Life would be so fair
