What a prolific songwriter he was in his day.
He was the most talented and energetic by far and away.
The man wrote hits for Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and Doris Day.
Sammy won awards for music written for the screen.
His songs accompanied many a wonderful scene.
Sammy came from New York’s Lower East Side.
His abundant musical talent was nothing he would hide.
Yes, Sammy had a composing career that was better than fine.
