There is an old song from the fifties or early sixties that is about a girl named Laurie that the singer meets at a dance. It's her birthday. He takes her home. Her house is near a cemetery. The next day he realizes that she left her sweater in his car. He returns it. Her father answers the door. The singer tells the man why he's there. The father says "how can you be so cruel? My daughter died a year ago today" or something like that. The singer goes to the cemetery and finds the grave of Laurie. I think this was based on a real ghost story.

That was Dickie Lee, who was better known for the song "Patches" (not the song of the same title by Clarence Carter).
