GOLDEN OLDIES LYRICS QUIZ #415 (GOLQ415)

Welcome to GOLQ415. 
It's been a tough summer. Since being let out into the wilderness again,
there's too much to do, not enough time to do it. So the theme to this quiz is
GOLQ summer vacation time.  What that means, less artists and less songs to
check.
Specifically:
- The quiz includes only songs from the Top 40.
- The quiz excludes all artists (solo or group) that were in any of GOLQ375
through GOLQ413 (I returned as a quizmaster for GOLQ375). This includes the
tie-breakers. I can't vouch for the artists in GOLQ414. The GOLQ Used list was
my sole reference for including or excluding artists.
- To help clarify, an artist for this quiz is any artist in Whitburn with a
bold-faced heading that has a list of numbered songs below it, i.e., not a
heading that just points elsewhere in Whitburn.  For example, the Animals
(GOLQ412) bold-faced entry also lists the songs by Eric Burdon & The Animals,
so all are excluded. But if a group member also appears in Whitburn as a solo
artist with a separate bold-faced heading (Ames Brothers vs. Ed Ames, for
example), then those are two different artists and two different groups of
songs.

If any questions, just email me at the GOLQ quiz address.

And once again, Bob Bluestein has contributed a Puzzler for the quiz.  As per
the theme, this should be a little easier than previous Puzzlers.

Enjoy!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mmm, I think you better go now
I'm gettin' mighty mad
#01)

Beyond the seas of thought 
Beyond the realm of what
Across the streams of hopes and dreams where things are really not
#02) 

But I tell myself I didn't lose her
'Cause you can't lose a friend you never had
#03) 

In every little town 'cross the U.S.A.
There's a spot where the people can go every day
Just leave your problems and a-get away
Come on down and listen to the guitars play
Woooh!
#04) 

Well-a, mama dear, a-tell me, do you hear
We're partying tonight
I tell you, I can't sleep because across the street
Uh-oh, uh-oh
#05) 

The ring she used to wear
Pages from an old love letter
#06) 

My little one, little one
Pigtails and petticoats
Where have you gone
#07) 

Oh no, that's not the way
And you're not listening to all I say
#08) 

With the sky so full of stars and the river so full of song
Every heart should be so thankful
#09)  

A-robbin' people with a six-gun
#10) 

Who is it you love
Make up your mind
Torture me with kisses
When I know your love is blind
Oh-oh-ohhhh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
#11) 

I remember (I remember) when I used to see you jumping rope
(Jumping rope, up and down baby)
And I remember when you got your first baby coach
#12)

So the story got around
Of an old romance and me
#13) 

I just want to tell you
How good you make me feel
And if you got a lifetime to spare
Baby I will
#14) 

And then he ran into an Amazon
Well, this changed his whole complexion (broccoli)
He had never seen such a beautiful sight (corn)
#15) 

Then suddenly she asked for my sweater
And said that she was very, very cold
#16) 

I'm in way over my head
Now she thinks that I love her
#17) 

Doctor and a lawyer and an Indian chief
Now they all dig that crazy beat
#18)

I tried to let you down so easy
I'd like to still be just a friend
We shared such memories together
But all good things come to an end
#19)

Oh, there's a last train to Jacksonville
I'm gonna get on it, baby, you know I will
Will you try, come on and try
To forget all the pain I brought ya
#20) 

You'll find this dance is so cool to do
Come on baby, gonna teach it to you
#21) 

Well, she strolled on up to me
And said "Hey, big boy, what's your name"
#22) 

Now why you want to act like that man ain't yours
Just 'cause he's walkin' with you with them raggedy clothes
Man just forgot to get his suit out of the cleaners, that's all
#23) 

That day, I first saw you passing by
I wanted to know your name but I was much too shy
#24) 

Goin' back down
To Kansas, too
Bring back a little girl
Just like you 
#25) 

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

I still want you by my side
Just to help me dry the tears that I've cried
And I'm sure gonna give you a try
And if you want I'll try to love again 
#T1) 

Before I be your dog
Before I be your dog
Before I be your dog to get you way down here
I make you walk alone 
#T2)

EASY AS ABC

Submission of an entry for this section is optional. Your participation or
performance has no bearing whatsoever on your quiz score or ranking.

Welcome to this Puzzler, from the New Kollege of Musical Knowledge!

This puzzle contains a Clues section with 26 clues (each followed by the
number of letters in each word in its answer). Following that section is a
Clue Answers section with 26 corresponding lines containing underscore
characters representing blanks to be filled by the letters of the
one-or-more-word clue answers (omitting between-word spacing). All
asterisks and punctuation on these lines should be ignored during this
clue solving phase. Note that as a start, a few letters have already been
filled in for you.

Once you have filled in all clue answer lines, your task is to read this
list from top to bottom marking down all letters that directly precede an
asterisk. These letters combined will spell out (without between-word spacing)
something that it's time you learned. Letters directly preceding punctuation
marks in some manner may provide good starting places to acquire this
knowledge!
