Welcome to installment #34 of this long-running lyrics-quiz series.

I won't make any predictions about the difficulty of this quiz, but I've
attempted to select an assortment of songs that vary in difficulty.
Now that the election season is over, I won't claim that this quiz will
be all things to all people, but I hope there's enough variety to
entertain you.

After the 25 regular songs, there will be 2 tie-breakers.
These 2 songs will not be in the alphabetical mix with the other 25, but
will be 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 and 1969 but did not hit the
Top 100 on the Pop chart; although there may have been charted covers of
these songs, I believe these early versions to be much more well known.

There have been no changes to the general rules.

Answers must be received by 5:00 PM PST on Tuesday, November 24, 1992.
Try to e-mail early since I don't know how long it takes to get here.

_____________________________________________________________________________

If a Miss wants to be kissed instead of cuddled
And to this you are in doubt as what to say
#01)

Remember, in your search for fortune and fame
What goes up
Must come down
#02)

Oh Mr. Bluebird on my shoulder
Ain't it the truth, oh no it's actual
Everything's gonna be satisfactual
#03)

Walk with me (walk with me)
Talk with me (talk with me)
I want you stop my heart from cryin'
Walk with me (walk with me)
Talk with me (talk with me)
And your love stop my heart from dyin'
#04)

There's a glow in my heart, I never felt before
There's a girl at my side, that I adore
There's a glow in my heart, I never felt before
#05)

Worry, why do I let myself worry
Wonderin'
What in the world did I do-oo-oo-oo
#06)

I've got my heart in my hand
I, I, I, I don't understand
What've I, what've I done wrong
Ev'n though, I, e, worship the ground you walk on
#07)

Oh-oh-oh, step right up, and take a look at a fool
He's got a heart as stubborn as a mule
Come on everybody, he's good for a laugh
And no one can tell his heart is broken in half
#08)

Now they never reopened that worthless pit
They just placed a marble stand in front of it
These few words are written on that stand
#09)

You gotta slop-bop flip-flop hip-hop all around
#10)

I don't need nobody
To tell my troubles to
I don't need nobody
To tell my troubles to
#11)

Now, I could understand your tears and your shame
She called you "Boy" instead of your name
When she wouldn't let you inside
When she turned and said, "But, honey, he's not our kind"
#12)

Our love's a precious secret
A beautiful thing of art
There is no need
For prying eyes
To look into my heart
#13)

So you gave him your heart, too
Just as I gave mine to you
And he broke 'em in little pieces
And now how do you do
#14)

And when our friends began arriving
It was plain to see
That you invited everyone
Everyone but me
#15)

He isn't much in the eyes of the world
He'll never make history
No, he isn't much in the eyes of the world
But he is the world to me
#16)

Oh, he shot that poor boy so bad
Till the bullet came through Billy
And broke the bartender's glass
#17)

Take a look at her hair
It's real
If you don't believe what I say, just feel
Gonna lock her in a trunk
So no big hunk can steal her away from me
#18)

From behind the counter I saw a man
A shelf hat on his head and a knife in his hand
He grabbed my by the collar and began to shout
"You better eat up all you beans and barley and clear right on out"
#19)

Now, you always say
That you wanna be free
But you'll come running back
You'll come running back
You'll come running back
To me-ee-ee
#20)

Five will get you ten
That in six more years we'll rate
Seven little children
Or maybe we'll have eight
#21)

When she goes strollin' down the street
All-the-cats all-the-cats all-the-cats cram to look around
Well now, she'll give everybody the eye
You-never-know you-never-know what my baby's gonna put down
#22)

And with a smile
We walked down the aisle
Me in my wedding dress
A vision of happiness
#23)

Hah hah hah hah (Hah hah hah hah)
Hey oh (hey oh)
Dooba dooba dooba dooba (dooba dooba dooba dooba)
Hah hah hah hah (hah hah hah hah)
#24)

Bill invited me to a show
And I said, "no
I cannot go
There's a dress that I've got to sew"
#25)

And you know why

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)

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 I don't
   have access to the original 45, my source is Joel Whitburn's 
   "Top Pop Singles 1955-1990" unless I have evidence indicating 
   that source is incorrect.  Songs should be alphabetized
   according to the following rules, unless I've made a mistake:

   Names beginning with "Mc" are alphabetized as if they were spelled "Mac".
   Names beginning with "St." are alphabetized as if they were spelled
   "Saint".

   Artists' names that begin with a number or with a punctuation symbol
   will be alphabetized using the word equivalent of the number or symbol.

   If a song has been done by more than one artist who fit the criteria
   of this quiz, the correct response will be the one that fits
   alphabetically.  If you don't know which one fits alphabetically
   because you have not identified adjoining songs, you may include
   multiple artists in your entry, but you will only receive credit if
   you include the one that fits alphabetically.

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

5) Songs WILL BE from the period 1955-1969 only, of course!!

6) Songs are singles that hit the Top 100 on the American 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.

   You should try to get as close as possible to the way it appears
   on the label; 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; I will look
   for lines beginning with those 4 characters (possibly preceded by
   ">" and/or " ").

9) Please answer the questions that follow the tie-breakers.
