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?
Chris

I picked the wrong girl again
