"The 1960's Lyric Round"

Postby Chris P » Thu Feb 26, 2009 8:13 pm

Following on from the lyrics to "A Whiter Shade of Pale" on another thread, I thought it might be a good idea to have a "1960's Lyrics Quiz".

So, I'll post the first one- the winner can then post the next and so on.

This was a hit in the Summer of 1967:-

"I was born in Lil' Rock,
Had a childhood sweetheart,
We were always hand in hand.

I was hightop shoes and shirt tails,
Suzy was in pig tails,
I know I loved her even then."


Who is it then and what song?
