GOLDEN OLDIES LYRICS QUIZ #70 (GOLQ70) --  CORRECTED

I am reposting this quiz to correct two errors I made on the first post.
First, song #13 violated the quiz rule that a song from previous quiz can not
be repeated.  I am supplying a replacement song.  Also, I had an error in the
lyrics (2nd & 4th line) for song #11.  The rest of the quiz is unchanged.

Sorry for the inconvenience, and thanks to those who pointed out the errors.

Happy (Rockin') New Year!

From the home of the #2 PSU Nittany Lions, here's the 70th installment of the
Golden Olden Lyrics Quiz series.  I'm hopeful that it's not too difficult,
but I'm sure it will prove to be plenty challenging.  I haven't included
systematic themes, although there might be some similarities among some of
the songs.

After the 25 regular songs, there will be 2 tie-breakers.  These 2 songs are
not in the alphabetical mix with the other 25 but are alphabetized with
respect to one another.  What these 2 songs have in common is that they do not
fit the eligibility requirements for inclusion in the regular part of the quiz:
either they were released prior to 1955 or else they were released between 1955
& 1969 but did not hit the Top 100 on the Pop charts for the specific artist.

There have been no changes to the general rules (which appear after the lyrics).

Good luck to all those who enter!

Ron

Don't, don't, don't, don't you see
What you are do-o-oin' to me
You upset my heart
Right from the start
#01)

I kicked off my shoes
And felt the good earth under my feet
I loosened my tie
And felt what it feels like to breathe
#02)

I can tell by the dimple
On your chin
You're in beautiful shape
For the shape you're in
And I'm in shape
#03)

So many loves have gone wrong
For so many hearts are in pain
Just like us, they were too young
And they played a losing game
#04)

Somebody to call me turtle dove
#05)

I don't want to end up like Bonnie and Clyde
#06)

A man in Kentucky
Sure is lucky
#07)

I feel just like a volcano that's ready to go
I want your love and kisses 'cause I love you so
And with every kiss that ya' give to me
I'll fill your lovin' heart with ecstasy
#08)

I want, want you to know
I love, I love you so
Please hold, hold me so tight
All through, all through the night
#09)

Baby, I was cruel-el-l (I was cruel)
Ba-a-by, I'm a fool (I'm such a fool)
#10)

And when I speak of you
I see envy in other men's eyes
And I'm well aware
Of what's on their minds
They pretend to be my friend
#11)

I know that somewhere
Somewhere, along the way
I'll find my love
My own true love
Someday
#12)

Oh, she's wonderful, she's marvelous
She's fabulous, she's beautiful
And anyone can understand why
#13)

Let's forget about the whinin' and cryin' and the shootin' and the dyin'
And the fella' with the switch-blade knife
#14)

Your kiss was such a sacred thing to me
I can't believe
It's just a burning memory
#15)

They tell us we're different
We haven't the right
To decide for ourselves, dear
What's black and what's white
#16)

I can see
You're slipping away from me
And you're so afraid
I'll plead with you to stay
#17)

Said you'd be (Ooh-wa)
Good to me (Ooh-wa-wa)
Said our love (Ooh-wa)
Would never die (Ooh-wa-wa)
Said you'd be (Ooh-wa)
Good to me (Ooh-wa-wa)
But baby, you didn't even try
#18)

Oh, I swear I'm gonna get you
If it takes me all my life
I'll hope and pray and dream and scheme
I'm gonna be your wife
#19)

I get up in the morning
Kick the covers from my bed
The sunlight in my eyes
Playing tricks with my head
I work like a dog
On my job every day
Tryin' to make some money
So's we can go and play
#20)

You've given me a true love
And every day I thank you, love
For giving back so new
So inviting, so exciting
#21)

Quit spyin' and sighin' and lyin' and tryin' to be so mean
'Cause You ain't scarin' nobody, baby
You're just makin' a scene
#22)

Whoa-oo-o-o, I'm gonna love you
With all my heart
Just hoping, Dear
That we'll never part
You're the girl
I'm thinking of
#23)

Wonder why when we're alone
The hours always pass so fast
A kiss or two and then you're gone
Gee, the time just doesn't last
#24)

Now Man's reign is through
But through eternal night
The twinkling of starlight
So very far away
Maybe it's only yesterday
#25)

tie breakers:

Love is like a piece of gold
Hard to get, hard to hold
I want to hold your hand
Until I make you understand
#T1)

Maybe I'm crazy
To suppose
I'd ever be the
One you chose
Out of the thousand invitations
You receive
#T2)

General Rules for Golden Oldies Lyrics Quizzes:

(These rules have been based upon those from Rick Schubert, David Griboff,
  Valentino Herrera, Barry Silk, Howard Teitelbaum, Ron Crandall, Carole
  Hanrahan, Jamie Lubin, Marc Dashevsky, and Bob Bluestein)

1) PLEASE READ THESE RULES FIRST!!

2) The songs are listed in alphabetical order by artist, as it
   actually appeared on the original 45 record.  When we don't
   have access to the original 45, our source is Joel Whitburn's
   "Top Pop Singles 1955-1990" unless we have evidence indicating
   that source is incorrect.  Songs should be alphabetized
   according to the following rules, unless we've made a mistake:

   -  Artists' names beginning with "St." are alphabetized as if they
      were spelled "Saint".
   -  Artists' names beginning with a number are alphabetized using
      the word equivalent of the number.

   If a song has been done with the given lyrics by more than one artist, a
   correct response is one whose artist fits alphabetically between the
   artists of the adjoining actual answers.  If you don't know which artist
   fits alphabetically because you have not identified adjoining songs,
   you may include multiple artists in your entry, but you are guaranteed
   full credit only if you include a correct artist.  The quiz master may
   use his/her judgement in awarding no, partial, or full credit to answers
   naming only performers of versions not containing the exact given lyrics.

   If a lead singer's name is used as part of the artist's name, the
   following alphabetization rules apply:

   -  If the last name is used as in "Firstname Lastname & the Group,"
      it is alphabetized under Lastname.
   -  If the last name is used as in "the Group featuring Firstname
      Lastname," it is alphabetized under Group.
   -  If the last name is not used as in "Firstname & the Group,"
      it is alphabetized under Firstname.
   -  If no last name is used, but a nickname is used before the
      firstname as in "Nickname Firstname & the Group," it is
      alphabetized under Nickname.

   For example:

      Artist                                  Alphabetized by
      -------------------------------------------------------
      The Crickets featuring Buddy Holly  ..  Crickets
      Buddy Holly & the Crickets  ..........  Holly
      Little Anthony & the Imperials  ......  Little
      Little Richard  ......................  Little
      Little Peggy March  ..................  March
      Martha & the Vandellas  ..............  Martha

3) Artists may be repeated from previous Golden Oldies quizzes.
   An artist will not be used more than once in any given quiz.

4) Songs will not be repeated from previous Golden Oldies quizzes,
   whether by the same artist or by a different artist.  However,
   a different song with the same title may be used.

5) Songs WILL BE from 1955-1969 only, of course!!  Re 1955: a record
   may have entered the charts in 1954 as long as it was still on the
   charts in 1955.  Re 1969: a record entering the charts in 1969 may
   still be on the charts in 1970.

6) Songs are singles that hit the Top 100 on the Billboard Pop Charts.
   Although most songs will have made the top twenty-five or so,
   expect a couple of songs in the quiz that will challenge the
   experts out there.

7) There are 25 songs to identify; each song is worth 20 points.
   Each Title is worth 10 points; each Artist is worth 10 points.
   A perfect score is 500 points.  Partial credit will be given for
   imperfect answers.

8) Append your answers to the lines that begin "#dd)", where "dd" are
   two digits.  You may delete the original lyrics or not; we will look
   for lines beginning with those 4 characters (possibly preceded by
   ">" and/or " ").
