Another of my all time favorites is “Silence Is Golden” by The Tremolos.
I am certain that the Searches did a version of it but I have searched their all time recordings and can’t find it.
Mine was Timothy by the Buoys.
The small town where I was raised had hundreds of caves winding underground in the bluffs along the river. Three young boys became lost somewhere in one when a new highway was being built. They were never found. That song always reminded me of those poor kids. It came out about the time the kids disappeared.
