GOLDEN OLDIES LYRICS QUIZ #245 (GOLQ245)
Welcome to GOLQ 245. I consider this to not be a difficult quiz. In fact, I
think that some of the included lyrics are among the most recognizable of
all time. There is a theme to this quiz, and once you figure out the theme,
it may help you determine the songs you have not yet identified. So, if you
have not participated in a GOLQ in a while, this may be the time for you to
jump back in. All recordings, including the tie-breakers, are from the
1955-1969 timespan.
Have fun!

Due 5:00 p.m. EDT (GMT-4), Saturday, June 30, 2007
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
You ought to come and see
His pretty bar
And his brand new car
#01)
You say you fear I'll change my mind
I won't require you
#02)
Got a back beat you can't lose it
Any old time you use it
#03)
You walked out of my dreams
Into my arms
Now you're my angel divine
#04)
Here it is another weekend
I ain't got nobody
Man if I was back home
I'd be swinging two chicks on my arm
#05)
A pretty little raven at the bird bandstand
Taught him how to do the bop and it was grand
#06)
I've been cheated
Been mistreated
#07)
Built big houses by the score
Won't need teepees any more
Although they changed our ways of old
They'll never change our heart and souls
#08)
I don't want to lose this good thing
That I've got
If I do I will surely
Surely lose a lot
#09)
Oh yes I know that your lips are sweet
But our lips must never meet
I belong to somebody else
And I must be true
#10)
Don't stop cookin'
It feels so good yeah
Hey-eey but don't stop now
Hey come on
#11)
It's growing in the street
Right up through the concrete
#12)
You got to swing your hips now
Come on baby
Jump up jump back
Well I think you got the knack
#13)
Now you say you're sorry
For being so untrue
#14)
Please check and see
Just one more time for me
#15)
Any time you want to
You can turn me on to
Anything you want to
Any time at all
#16)
It's important to me
That you know you are free
Cause I never want to make you change for me
#17)
I don't believe you
You're not the truth
No one could look as good as you
#18)
Come with me
My love
To the sea
#19)
My love will be so sound
It'll take about a hundred lifetimes to live it down
Wear it down
Tear it down
#20)
Time, time, time
See what's become of me
While I looked around for my possibilities
I was so hard to please
#21)
Baby comin' now I'm hurryin' home
I know she's leavin' cause I'm takin' too long
#22)
Love is a losing game
And love can be a shame
#23)
I was born to love you
And I will never be free
You'll always be a part of me
#24)
Where oh where can my baby be?
#25)
------------
Tie-Breakers
------------
I felt the earth turn in my hand
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command, my love
#T1)
Everywhere I go you know
Bad luck follows me
Every time I fall in love
You know I'm left in misery
#T2)
