Throwing back to the week of May 1, 1954, we find two repeats topping Billboard’s singles chart: Perry Como’s ‘Wanted’ and Jo Stafford’s ‘Make Love to Me.’ This was the fifth straight week that those songs occupied the top two spots, with Como in #1 for four of them.
At #3 is ‘Cross Over the Bridge,’ a song originally written in 1945 by Bennie Benjamin and George David Weiss. The recording that received the most success was this one, by singer Patti Page. Page was the top-selling female performer of the 50s, having already scored four #1 hits before this one made it to #2.
And you’ve forgot the rules of love that life has always taught
And if you broke as many hearts as ripples in a stream
Well, brother, here’s the only way that you can be redeemed
Cross over the bridge, cross over the bridge
Change your reckless way of livin’, cross over the bridge
Leave you fickle past behind you and true romance will find you
Brother, cross over the bridge
If you have built a boat to take you to the greener side
And if that boat is built of ev’ry lie you ever lied
You’ll never reach the promised land of love, I guarantee
‘Cause lies cannot hold water and you’ll sink into the sea
Cross over the bridge, cross over the bridge
Change your reckless way of livin’, cross over the bridge
Leave you fickle past behind you and true romance will find you
Brother, cross over the bridge
I know it isn’t easy to resist temptation’s call
But think of how your broken heart will hurt you when you fall
‘Cause some day you will find that you are hopelessly in love
And she’ll belong to someone else as sure as stars above
Cross over the bridge, cross over the bridge
Change your reckless way of livin’, cross over the bridge
Leave you fickle past behind you and true romance will find you
Brother, cross over the bridge
Cross over the bridge
Cross over the bridge
Cross over the bridge
Cross over the bridge
Cross over the bridge
Meet Me In Montauk 
I’m familiar with Tennessee Waltz and Doggie in the Window, but not this one.
I haven’t heard of this one but I do remember singing to the ones Dana mentioned. She and Peggy Lee were very popular during the 50’s along with Doris Day.
