Golden Oldies Lyrics Quiz #365
Recordings #01-25 were from 1955 through 1969
Due 5:00 p.m. EDT (GMT-4), Friday, June 30, 2017
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

One for your beauty
And one for your smile
And the last hill to hold you again
#01)

There's one more thing
I got the pink slip, Daddy
#02)

Up in the mornin'
Out on the job
I work like the devil for my pay
#03)

Got to get up in the mornin'
About a quarter to eight
(Don't you know I'm bound)
I'm bound to my job
#04)

What do I do when my love is away?
(Does it worry you to be alone?)
No no
How do I feel at the end of the day?
(Are you sad 'cause you're on your own?)
#05)

Got no dough but just a nod
Will get the girls though it may seem odd
A real cool lover in his old hot rod
#06)

Sneakin' down your alleyway
And knockin' on your door
Thought I had enough
But I'm back for more
#07)

Nine to five ain't a-takin' me where I'm bound
When it's done I run out and see my baby
#08)

I'll never lose the memory of your name
In the night
That I call through the lonely years
#09)

Take care, TCB
(Sock it to me, sock it to me, sock it to me, sock it to me)
#10)

It was the third of June
Another sleepy, dusty Delta day
#11)

All of the lonely nights
Waiting for you to come
Longing to hold you tight
#12)

When the chimes ring five, six, and seven
We'll be right in seventh heaven
#13)

Said to my shock
You're on the wrong block
#14)

I didn't mean to make you cry
Let's make amends
#15)

I could make him happy
(Oh yeah)
If he'd only let me
(Oh yeah)
#16)

I'll love you forever
Till stars cease to shine
And hope someday darling that
You'll always be mine
#17)


In the morning when it's still too early to knock
And the dusty light shines down on the block
And reflects up and down on the hands of the clock
#18)

I wish that I'd been smart
And never adored you
You broke my heart
Easy kisses just bored you
#19)

(Stay away, baby)
I could love you so
(No no)
I could love you so
(No no)
#20)

So I'm pickin' 'em up
And I'm a-layin' 'em down
I believe he's gonna work me into the ground
#21)

When we kiss my heart's on fire
Burning with a strange desire
#22)

I go back to the house
Hear the woman's mouth
Preachin' and a-cryin'
Tell me that I'm lyin'
#23)

C'mere baby
Just a little bit closer
Turn your radio up so you can hear what I'm sayin'
Awww, now you got me turned on, baby
#24)

Up every morning just to keep a job
I gotta find my way through the hustlin' mob
Sounds of the city poundin' in my brain
While another day goes down the drain
#25)

------------
Tie-Breakers
------------

Nothing can come between us
When it gets dark I tow your heart away
#T1)

Send a message to my love
Tell him that I'll wait patiently
Sad and so lonely
Dreamin' of him only
#T2)
