Golden Oldies Lyrics Quiz #223
Recordings #01-25 were from 1956 through 1969
Due 5:00 p.m. EDT (GMT-4), Wednesday, August 31, 2005
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
What to do, oh I'm left here just crying
Over you, oh, I'm so blue, what can I do
#01)
Now me and my mate were back at the shack
We had Spike Jones on the box
She said I can't take the way that he sings
But I love to hear him talk
#02)
Akey rice, salt fish are nice
And the rum is fine any time of year
#03)
But when I walk with you
My soul starts every star
#04)
Was so good to be young then
To be close to the earth
And to stand by your wife
At the moment of birth
#05)
When my friends told me you had someone new
I didn't believe a single word was true
I told them all I had faith in you
#06)
The silver moon will fade too soon
And bring the dawn when you'll be gone
Before you go please let me know
That what you feel is really real
#07)
It was just five years today
When his daddy passed away
He was found beneath the snow
So cold and white
#08)
Come here, little man
Don't be afraid, I'm your daddy
I guess you'll get used to me in time
#09)
You've got to prime the pump
You must have faith and believe
You've got to give of yourself
'Fore you're worthy to receive
#10)
Though someone that you've met
Has made you forget
Honey, you know you can count on me
#11)
All you gotta do, honey, is stand in one spot
Wiggle around just a little bit
#12)
So don't roam, just be my honeycomb
And live in a heaven of love
#13)
What I'd give if I could hear
The three little words that would thrill the heart of me
Just whisper (shhh) I love you and will eternally
#14)
But something's wrong, I cannot move around
My leg is caught, it's pulling me down
#15)
Squeeze me, tease me, please me
#16)
I was in heaven when I held her hand
And all of her kisses, they were so grand
And I really loved her
#17)
Well, it's when we're gonna kiss and kiss and kiss and kiss
And we're gonna kiss some more
#18)
The breeze from the bayou keeps murmuring low
#19)
With hurry-home-drops on her cheek
That trickled from her eye
#20)
Well, our children they numbered just about four
And they all had a sweetheart a-knockin' at the door
#21)
Your old man took her diamonds
And tiaras by the score
#22)
The hurt will bring teardrops to my eyes
Though I would pretend that now she's just a friend
You'd look at me and see right through the lies
#23)
Pretty little one that I adore
You're the only one my heart beats for
How I wish that you were mine
#24)
As I look back
I can see me lost and searching
Now I find that I can choose
#25)
------------
Tie-Breakers
------------
Phase one, in which Doris gets her oats
#T1)
Your friends they say I am a stranger
You'll never see my face no more
There is just one promise that's given
We'll sail on God's golden shore
#T2)
