Golden Oldies Lyrics Quiz #119

Hello Oldies Fans!  This quiz contains a major theme.  That is, all
songs (including both tie-breakers) share a common characteristic.
Once you recognize the theme, it should help make the quiz a lot
easier.  Hope you enjoy it!

If you do not have the official GOLQ Rules (a posted copy of the rules
should follow a posted copy of this quiz on most sites), you may read
them by pointing your web browser at:

                ftp://bobcat.bbn.com/pub/golq/FAQ/rules

There have been no changes to the general rules since the last quiz.

If you want GOLQs and their results and answers sent directly to you
by e-mail, send e-mail to golq-request@world.std.com consisting only

Have fun, and the best of luck to all those who enter.

She was seventeen
She was my teenage queen
Why did she go away
And leave me blue?
#01) 

You're only robbin' yourself of sleep
No harm in sobbin'
Don't try to hold
Release your soul
#02) 

It's the one with the pretty melody
It's the one that made you fall in love with me
#03) 

She wins all the contests down in Philly PA
She's the number one dancer in the USA
#04) 

She's so pretty
Lord she's fine
I'm gonna make her mine all mine
#05) 

I wanna know if she loved me
Did she really love me
Was she just playing
Me for a fool?
I wonder why she left me
Why did she leave me
#06) 

Are you really wise
Do you realize
That those devil eyes
Are bluer than the skies
#07) 

I can't let you go
I've built my world around you
I need you so
Baby, even though
You don't need me
You don't need me
#08) 

You're the one girl in town I'd marry
Girl, I'd marry you now if I were free
#09) 

Now you tell me that you're so busy
Pretty baby
You ain't got much time
Oh how well I remember
When all your time was mine, mine, mine
#10) 

I know you can do it
So baby get to it
Ah, you're working with it now
You got me feeling so good
#11) 

Go on and spread your wings and fly
Try to touch the sky
But keep your powder dry
#12) 

I don't mind when you lend my clothes
My jewelry and such
But honey, let's get something straight
There's one thing you don't touch
#13) 
 
Did I forget your birthday?
Did I forget to call?
Girls get mad at such little things
How can a guy ever think of them all?
#14) 

Every cloud must have a silver lining
Wait until the sun shines through
Smile, my honey dear
While I kiss away each tear
#15) 

I did you wrong
My heart went out to play
But in the game I lost you
What a price to pay
I'm crying
#16) 

I'm gonna find her tonight
We're gonna have a time
I want that baby to be mine all mine
A big day's comin' for my baby and me
The day she says she belongs to me
#17) 
 
Got me dreamin' sweet dreams
The whole day through
Got me dreamin' sweet dreams
Night time too
#18) 

But if you wanna know the truth about it
Girl, I just couldn't live without you
And that's why I'm professing my love to you
So that I can live my whole life with you
#19) 

Lord, I stand at my window
Wring my hands and cryin'
I hate to lose that woman
Hate to say goodbye
#20) 

Ready, ready, ready, ready, ready, ready or not
I want, yes I do, what you got
#21) 

Johnny's going away
You were wrong 
Pretty baby, bye bye
Oh so wrong pretty baby, bye bye
Yes so wrong pretty baby, bye bye
Please don't you cry
#22) 

Been missin' ya
Miss kissin' ya
Instead of breakin' up
Let's do some kissin' and makin' up
Don't throw our love away
#23) 

My mother didn't want me as a baby
So she left me, she left me home to die, yeah
But I grew up to be a lady
With still some time, some time
I sit and cry, yeah
#24) 

Some men climb a mountain
Some men swim the sea
Some men fly above the sky
They are what they must be
#25) 

----------------------
Tie-Breakers
----------------------

Please don't let me argue anymore
I won't make you worry like before
Can't remember what we fought about
Late, late last night we said it was over
But I remember when we thought it out
We both had a broken heart
#T1) 

I think I'm gonna cry
Cause once you loved me
And I told you goodbye
And then tonight I took one look at you
And my heart broke in two
#T2)
