Lip-syncing and pretty obvious. That was “our” song during my engagement to my husband (going on 58 years) — but we liked the original by the Italian singer whose name I do not know.

This one is a little before my time.

My only memory of this song is from it being used to advertise a very bad domestic car, circa 1975.

One of my All Time Favorites

Back when times were innocent and good. Streets were safe, schools were too. And efficient. People had manners

A memorable time and song

I went out to the hop with Peggy Sue.
Doing the hula hoop, there was Bertha Lou.
I saw Tutti Frutti with a sack dress on
Talking about Carol on the telephone.
Good golly, Miss Molly was doing the bop
To "Yakety Yak" at the record hop.
Hey, pretty baby, I don't mean maybe,
You know, girl, the slop is crazy.
Bird Dog joined and sang "Dipinto di Blu,"
Believe it or not!

--Don Covay, 1958
