Here are the lyrics to “You Belong to Me” by The Duprees:
“See the pyramids along the Nile
Watch the sun rise on a tropic isle
Just remember, darling, all the while
You belong to me.
See the marketplace in old Algiers
Send me photographs and souvenirs
But remember when a dream appears
You belong to me.
I’ll be so alone without you
Maybe you’ll be lonesome too—and blue
Fly the ocean in a silver plane
Watch the jungle when it’s wet with rain
Just remember till you’re home again
You belong to me”
The Duprees were from Jersey City, New Jersey, and consisted of Michael Arnone, Joe Santollo, John Salvato, Tom Bialoglow and Joey Canzano (later known as Joey Vann). Membership in the group has changed over the years, but they’re still touring and giving live performances.

For More Golden Oldies Music
The Daily Doo Wop Rec Room has daily featured doo wop, rock and roll, R&B, or rockabilly songs that were hits during the first era of rock and roll (that is, from about 1952 until the British invasion in 1964). After a song is featured, it then goes into the juke box. You are welcome to listen to any of the 40+ selections there. Every weekend, there is a Golden Oldies Juke Box Saturday Night, and the juke box is full of song requests from the 1950s and 1960s.
