RESULTS and ANSWER KEY for GOLDEN OLDIES LYRICS QUIZ #32

Congratulations to the team of Jamie (Lubin), Terry & Charlie, for claiming 
first place honors, and to Ron and Sally Crandall, who finished a close 2nd.

From the comments I received, this was one of the tougher quizzes in the GOLQ
series. It wasn't meant to be as difficult as it turned out. With the clarity
of 20/20 hindsight, however, I see I may have leaned too heavily on songs that
peaked in the teens and twenties. None of the songs stumped all who entered, 
though, and a few were picked correctly by nearly all entrants. 

Thanks to all who entered! I enjoyed being quizmaster and I hope to do it again
soon. I will strive for a better balance in my next quiz.

Watch for GOLQ#33, coming soon from Jamie Lubin!

And now, here are the answers to GOLQ #32, in the form:

#number) Artist: "Title" (year) [peak position on Billboard Pop Chart]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

My little girl, you're so young and pretty
And one thing I know is true
You're gonna die before your time is due
#01)The Animals: "We Gotta Get Out Of This Place"  (1965) [13]


How could I ever have known that
She'd be what she is today
Look at how her boyfriend holds her
I'll be movin' in one day
#02)The Beach Boys: "The Little Girl I Once Knew" (1964-65) [20]

	(Jamie, Terry, and Charlie note that the Beach Boys and the Bee Gees
were both quite successful on the Billboard charts: The Beach Boys are tied
for eleventh in number of charted singles (56). The Bee Gees are tied for third
in the number of consecutive #1 hits (6). Both groups are tied for eighteenth
in the number of top ten hits with 15.)


In the event of something happening to me
There is something that I'd like you all to see
It's just a photograph of someone that I knew
#03)The Bee Gees: "New York Mining Disaster 1941 
				(Have You Seen My Wife, Mr. Jones)" (1967) [14] 

	(Ron and Sally Crandall noted that this was the Bee Gees' first song 
on the U.S. charts.)


All I ever, ever hope to be
Depends on your love for me
Baby, believe me, if you should leave me
I'd be nothin' but an empty shell
#04)The Box Tops: "Soul Deep" (1969) [18] 


We're kids no more, baby
We belong, you and me, together
I vow never to do you wrong and shall always keep you happy
Now dear, the things I need are very few
But there's one thing I demand of you
#05)Gene Chandler: "Just Be True" (1964) [19] 


Tell me do you want my love
Tell me what you're thinkin' of
I been waitin' 'round so long
#06)The Dave Clark Five: "Try Too Hard" (1966) [12] 


Well, one day baby, you'll be sorry
For the way you made people cry
It's not so funny, not one bit, honey
One day you'll wake up and realize
#07)Dee Clark: "Just Keep It Up"  (1959) [18]


You took a colored ribbon from out of the sky
And taught me how to use it as the years went by
To tie up all your problems and make them look neat
And then to sell them to the people in the street
#08)Four Jacks and A Jill: "Master Jack" (1968) [18] 


When you look at me
In your eyes I can see
A love that grows each day
That's why I've gotta say
#09)Gerry and the Pacemakers: "It's Gonna Be Alright" (1965) [23] 


It seems unfair to leave you
And sell myself the way I do
But when my wanderin' is over
#10)The Hollies: "Pay You Back With Interest" (1967) [28] 


My phys-ed teacher's got me workin' too hard
Relax after school sittin' out in the yard
Just me and my baby, I'm holdin' her hand
#11)Jan & Dean: "Popsicle" (1966) [21] 

	(If I remember correctly, this single was released *after* the auto
accident in which Jan was seriously injured. It was an attempt by their record
label to keep them on the charts.
	An album titled "Popsicle" was released to cash in on the success of 
the single, but consisted solely of tracks previously released on other albums.
This was true of many J&D album releases.)
 

Remember on our first date
You kissed me and you walked away
You were only seventeen
I never thought you'd act so mean
#12)Ben E. King: "Don't Play That Song (You Lied)" (1962) [11] 

	(Barry Silk and Joe Haertel pointed out that background vocals on
this song are by the Cookies and Little Eva.)


When I was a little baby
My mama said, hey son
Travel where you will and grow to be a man
Sing what must be sung
#13)The Kingston Trio: "Greenback Dollar" (1963) [21] 

	(Ron & Sally Crandall noted that the airplay version of this song had
the word "damn" removed. When I went back and listened to the single, it
shows some unique editing: "Well, I don't give a  <sound of a guitar chord>
about a greenback dollar....".) 


I just couldn't help myself 
Guess I was born with a curious mind
I asked this man just what did he mean
When he moaned, if he'd be so kind
#14)Major Lance: "Um, Um, Um, Um, Um, Um" (1964) [5] 

	(Howard and Bonnie Teitelbaum noted that this song was written by
Curtis Mayfield.)


You've been knockin' on my front door
And I know just what you're lookin' for, but
Even though you really look so fine
And we could have a good time
#15)Darlene Love: "Wait Till My Bobby Gets Home" (1963) [26] 


If you think you've found someone
You'll love for evermore
Then it's worth the price you'll have to pay
#16)Mercy: "Love (Can Make You Happy)" (1969) [2] 


You're dynamite
You got me uptight
The way you sock it to me, girl
You're out of sight
#17)Gene Pitney: "She's A Heartbreaker" (1968) [16] 


Wake up in the morning and I fi-i-ind
You're not in my room, you're in my mi-i-ind
Suddenly the sun has lost its shine
Baby, baby
#18)Paul Revere and the Raiders: "I Had A Dream" (1967) [17] 

	(This was one of their later, lesser known chart singles. A couple
of years after this release, they shortened their name to simply "The Raiders.")


Around the far turn in the straightaway
I was blowin' off everything that got in my way
#19)The Rip Chords: "Hey Little Cobra" (1964) [4] 

	(The vocals on this song are actually done by Terry Melcher and Bruce
Johnston. Terry Melcher was Doris Day's son, and produced records in the '60s
for the Byrds and Paul Revere and the Raiders. Bruce Johnston later became a 
member of the Beach Boys.)


Here she comes
Just look at that style
She's looking at you
Giving you that smile
#20)Del Shannon: "Little Town Flirt" (1963) [12] 

	(Rick and Kathy Schubert pointed out that Del's real name was Charles 
Westover. 
	The liner notes to his Rhino "Greatest Hits" CD note that his themes 
of teen angst and escape are echoed in the work of Bruce Springsteen. Before 
his suicide in 1990, he was considered to be an ideal candidate for the
fourth member of the Traveling Wilburys, following the death of Roy Orbison.)	


That's where you'll find me
Along with lovers, muggers, and thieves
Ah, but they're cool people
#21)The Standells: "Dirty Water" (1966) [11] 

	(Rick and Kathy Schubert noted that lead singer Dick Dudd was an 
original member of the Mouseketeers.)


One night a week is plenty enough
It's a good thing for me they don't bottle that stuff
#22)Swingin' Medallions: "Double Shot (Of My Baby's Love)" (1966) [17] 


Driftin' up and down the street
Searchin' for the sounds of people
Swingin' their feet
#23)Norma Tanega: "Walkin' My Cat Named Dog" (1966) [22] 


Yes, I will do my homework
Clean the yard every day
Yes, I will wash those dishes
I'll do anything you say
#24)Chuck Willis: "Hang Up My Rock and Roll Shoes" (1958) [24] 


Where did your long hair go
Where is the girl I used to know
How could you lose that happy glow
#25)Brian Wilson: "Caroline, No" (1966) [32] 

	(Although this song was later included in the Beach Boys' "Pet Sounds"
album, it first saw release as a Brian Wilson solo single. Twenty-two years
later, Brian released his first solo album.)
