too very different versions

That rambling drumroll buddy meets rockabilly was long in the tooth by 66 when Brit invasion and even Haight music was popping off

It was maybe the last big hit of that style

I used to ride my pre banana seat schwinn around transistor radio strapped to handle bars hearing it on 1320 or 1610 our top forty dials in Jackson schwin

Stubbed toes and skinned knees de rigeur

Grey 5X5 Motorola with wrist strap

It's a regaional thing. Southern though I may be, I was raised farther north than you, and our radio stations were behind yours in keeping pace with the waves of Southern sensibility music. Sorta like the movie theaters in Georgia were a year behind those in Maryland when I arrived with my hubby at Fort Benning.
