Hi Oldies Fans!!

Prediction mode on:  Most of you will find this quiz to be easier than the
last quiz (GOLQ32), but more difficult than my GOLQ31.

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 songs have
in common is that they were released prior to 1955; although the songs may
have been covered since then, I believe these early versions to be much
more well known.

There have been no changes to the general rules.

Good luck to all those who elect (see due date) to respond!!

Make the music mine
Play another set
So that I'll forget
#01)

You know my heart will never let you go-o-o
You know my love for you is on the square
When I wake up in the morning, I want you right there
#02)

Now I don't mean to bother you, but I'm in distress
There's danger of me losing all of my happiness
#03)

When Cupid shot his dart
He shot it at your heart
So if we ever part
Then I'll leave you
#04)

I'll talk about plans, now baby I got plenty
Nothing ever seems to turn out the way it should
Talk about money, girl I ain't got any
Seems like just one time I'm feelin' good
#05)

I can make you mine
Taste your lips of wine
Any time, night or day
#06)

Ramblin' around this dirty old town
A-singin' for nickels and dimes
Times get rough
I ain't got enough
#07)

Since I kissed his lovin' lips of wine
The thing that bothers me is that I like it fine
Hey hey, set me free
#08)

Well every woman should try to be
Whatever her man wants her to be
And I don't want much
All I want from you
Is for you to be true to me
#09)

Well work it on out honey (work it on out)
Ah, you look so good (you know you look so fine)
Now you know you got me goin' now (you know you got me goin')
Just like I knew you would (just like I knew you would)
#10)

I woke up this morning, baby
I had you on my mind
I felt so much love this morning
Little girl, little girl, you feel so fine
#11)

Now when you're near me, little girl
My head goes around and 'round
And when you kiss me, oh yeah
My love comes tumblin' down
#12)

My breaking heart and I agree
That you and I could never be
So with my best, my very best
I set you free
#13)

He made my life worth livin'
And I will thank Him every day
For every kiss you're givin'
#14)

Over the highway and over the street
Carpets of clover I'll lay at your feet
Oh well there's nothing in this world I wouldn't do
#15)

When they started doin' (ooo-ooo-ooo)
That crazy dance (ooo-ooo-ooo)
Well that was the ruin (ooo-ooo-ooo)
Of my big romance (oo-oo-oo)
#16)

Painted wings and giants' things
Make way for other toys
One gray night it happened
Jackie Paper came no more
#17)

Well, now that I'm old and ready to go
I get to thinkin' what happened a long time ago
Had a lot of kids, a lot of trouble and pain
But then, whoops, oh Lordy, well I'd do it all again
#18)

Where did I go wrong, honey
What ever changed your mind, baby
I've asked myself these questions over a million times
#19)

Oh baby, every day's a holiday
And every night is a Saturday night
#20)

Darling I love you
I'll always be true
My prayers, they were answered
And the Lord sent me you
#21)

Try, try, try to separate them
It's an illusion
Try, try, try and you will only come
To this conclusion
#22)

But every step I make, every step that I take
I'll make it up to you, I'll make it up to you
Undo the wrong I've done, undo the wrong I've done
I've been unfaithful, I know it's true, but I'll make it up to you
#23)

Because it takes more than an effort
To stay away from you
It take more than a lifetime
To prove that I'll be true
#24)

I know that you've been askin' 'bout me, huh huh
But I'm sorry, but I've got somebody new
And my hurtin' is just about over
But baby, it's just startin' for you
#25)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
tie breakers:

Make him the cutest that I've ever seen
Give him two lips like roses in clover
Then tell him that his lonesome nights are over
#TB1)

I'm like a one-eyed jack peepin' in a seafood store
I'm like a one-eyed jack peepin' in a seafood store
#TB2)

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 will be alphabetized using
   the word equivalent of the number.

   If a song has been done by more than one artist, the correct
   response will be 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 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 " ").
