That's right, that's right, I'm sad and blue
'Cause I can't do the boogaloo
I'm lost, I'm lost, can't do my thing
That's why I sing "Gimme, gimme dat ding!"

Gimme dat, gimme dat, gimme, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme dat ding, gimme dat, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme dat ding, gimme dat, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme, gimme, gimme, dat ding
(Oh, sing it one more time, mama)

Ah, gimme dat, gimme dat, gimme, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme dat ding, gimme dat, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme dat ding, gimme dat, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme, gimme, gimme, dat ding
(Ah, you ain't doing that late at night)

A-ooh, what good's a metronome without a bell for ringing?
(You're right, you're right, it's no use at all)
How fast can anybody ever tell he swinging?
(Eh, they can't tell)
How can you tell the rhythm written on a bar?
(Well, you don't go too far, that's what you do)
How can you ever hope to know just where you are?
(Well you look around ya)

Gimme dat
(Gimma dat)
Gimme dat
(Gimma dat)
Gimme dat
(Gimma dat)
Gimme dat
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme
(Ah, gotcha)

Gimme dat, gimme dat, gimme, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme dat ding, gimme dat, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme dat ding, gimme dat, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme, gimme, gimme, dat ding

Ah, gimme dat, gimme dat, gimme, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme dat ding, gimme dat, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme dat ding, gimme dat, gimme, gimme dat
Gimme, gimme, gimme, dat ding

Interesting song . . .

The American Bandstand clip was fun to see. The prizes at the end were applicable for back then, as well.

Hello, yeah, it's been a while
Not much, how about you?
I'm not sure why I called
I guess I really just wanted to talk to you
And I was thinking maybe later on
We could get together for a while
It's been such a long time

And I really do miss your smile
I'm not talking about moving in
And I don't want to change your life
But there's a warm wind blowing, the stars are out
And I'd really love to see you tonight
We could go walking through a windy park
Or take a drive along the beach
Or stay at home and watch TV
You see it really doesn't matter much to me

I'm not talking about moving in
And I don't want to change your life
But there's a warm wind blowing, the stars are out
And I'd really love to see you tonight

I won't ask for promises
So you don't have to lie
We've both played that game before
Say I love you and say goodbye

I'm not talking about moving in
And I don't want to change your life
But there's a warm wind blowing, the stars are out
And I'd really love to see you tonight

I'm not talking about moving in
And I don't want to change your life
But there's a warm wind blowing, the stars are out
And I'd really love to see you tonight

I'm not talking about moving in
And I don't want to change your life
But there's a warm wind blowing, the stars are out
And I'd really love to see you tonight

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.

You know my papa disapproved it,
My mama boohooed it,
But I told them time and time again,
"Don't you know I was made to love her,
Built a world all around her"
Yah! Hey, hey, hey.

She's been my inspiration,
Showed appreciation
For the love I gave her through the years.

Like a sweet magnolia tree
My love blossmed tenderly,
My life grew sweeter through the years.

I know that my baby loves me,
My baby needs me,
That's why we made it through the years.

I was made to love her,
Worship and adore her,
Hey, hey, hey.

All through thick and thin
Our love just won't end,
'Cause I love my baby, love my baby. Ah!

My baby loves me,
My baby needs me,
And I know I ain't going nowhere.

I was knee high to a chicken
When that love bug bit me,
I had the fever with each passing year.

Oh, even if the mountain tumbles,
If this whole world crumbles,
By her side I'll still be standing there.

'Cause I was made to love her,
I was made to live for her, yeah!

Ah, I was made to love her,
Built my world all around her,
Hey, hey, hey.

Oo baby, I was made to please her,
You know Stevie ain't gonna leave her, no,
Hey, hey, hey.

Oo wee baby, my baby loves me,
My baby needs me,
Hey, hey, hey.

OO my baby loves me....

Uptown girl
She's been living in her uptown world
I bet she never had a back street guy
I bet her mama never told her why

I'm gonna try for an uptown girl
She's been living in her white bread world
As long as anyone with hot blood can
And now she's looking for a downtown man
That's what I am

And when she knows what
She wants from her time
And when she wakes up
And makes up her mind

She'll see I'm not so tough
Just because
I'm in love with an uptown girl
You know I've seen her in her uptown world
She's getting tired of her high class toys
And all her presents from her uptown boys
She's got a choice

Uptown girl
You know I can't afford to buy her pearls
But maybe someday when my ship comes in
She'll understand what kind of guy I've been
And then I'll win

And when she's walking
She's looking so fine
And when she's talking
She'll say that she's mine

She'll say I'm not so tough
Just because
I'm in love
With an uptown girl
She's been living in her white bread world
As long as anyone with hot blood can
And now she's looking for a downtown man
That's what I am

Uptown girl
She's my uptown girl
You know I'm in love
With an uptown girl

My uptown girl
You know I'm in love
With an uptown girl
My uptown girl
You know I'm in love
With an uptown girl
My uptown girl

Oh, you better not shriek
you better not groan
You better not howl
you better not moan
Great Pumpkin is coming to town!

He's going to find out from folks that he meets,
Who deserves tricks and who deserves treats
Great Pumpkin is coming to town!

He'll search in every pumpkin patch
haunted houses far and near
To see if you've been spreading gloom
or bringing lots of cheer!

So you better not shriek
you better not groan
You better not howl
you better not moan
Great pumpkin is coming to town!!

 

[KentB3]

We're on sidewalks
we're on porches
dressed in costumes to scare
Through the city we're ringing the doorbells.

Trick or treating
candy eating
gooey stuff in our hair
But the most fun is shrieking out loud

SHIVERY YELLS, SHIVERY YELLS,
That's the Halloween nitty-gritty.
Moan and groan
leave us alone
Halloween's just one night a year!

 

[KentB3]

Up in the pumpkin patch, witches pause,
Out jumps the Great One; hear the applause?
Down through the rows with goodies and toys
All for this follower's Halloween joys!

HAUNT! HAUNT! HAUNT! who wouldn't want..
HAUNT! HAUNT! HAUNT! who wouldn't want?
To be in a pumpkin patch CHEER! CHEER! CHEER!
Waiting for the Great One and being sincere.

 

[KentB3]

Dashing through the streets
in our costumes bright and gay,
To each house we go
laughing all the way.
Halloween is here
making spirits bright
What fun it is to trick-or-treat
And sing pumpkin carols tonight!!

Oh, Pumpkin Bells! Pumpkin Bells!
Ringing loud and clear,
Oh what fun Great Pumpkin brings
When Halloween is here!

Oh, Pumpkin Bells! Pumpkin bells!
Ringing loud and clear,
Oh what fun Great Pumpkin brings
When Halloween is here!

 

[KentB3]

I'm dreaming of the Great Pumpkin
Just like I do this time each year.
When he brings nice toys
to good girls and boys
who wait for him to appear.

I'm dreaming of the great pumpkin
with every pumpkin card I write.
May your jack-o-lanterns burn bright
when the great pumpkin visits you tonight!

 

[KentB3]

Screech owls hoot. are you listen'in?
beneath the moon; all is glist'nin--
A real scarey sight; we're happy tonight.
Waitin' in a pumpkin wonderland!

In the patch, we're watching for Great Pumpkin;
We've been waiting for this night all year.
For we've tried to be nice to everybody,
And to grow a pumpkin patch that is sincere!!!

Later on, while we're eating;
what we got trick-or-treating;
We'll share all our sacks of Halloween snacks;
waiting in a pumpkin wonderland!!

 

[KentB3]

Deck the patch with orange and black
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Take along your goody sack
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Don we now our gay apparel
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Troll the ancient pumpkin carol
Fa la la la la, la la la la

See the great one rise before us
Fa la la la la, la la la la
As we sing the Pumpkin chorus
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Follow him as he ascends
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Join with true GREAT PUMPKIN friends.
Fa la la la la, la la la la.

 

[KentB3]

O pumpkin cards ! O pumpkin cards!
Carry greetings to my friends...
O pumpkin cards ! O pumpkin cards!
Carry greetings to my friends...

Let them know the day is here;
when Great Pumpkin will appear.
O pumpkin cards! O pumpkin cards!
Carry greetings to my friends

 

[KentB3]

I heard the bells on Halloween
their old, familiar carols scream,
And wild and sweet the words repeat
The pumpkin season's here again.

Then peeled the bells more loud and strong
Great Pumpkin comes before too long!
The good will get the bad will fret
The pumpkin season's here again!!

 

[KentB3]

I was working in the lab
And light one night
When my eyes beheld
An eerie sight
When my monster from his slab
Began to rise
And suddenly
To my surprise

He did the mash
He did the Monster Mash
The Monster Mash
It was a graveyard smash
He did the mash
It caught on in a flash
The Monster Mash
It's called the Monster Mash

The laboratory in the castle eaves
And the master bedroom where the vampire sleeps
The girls all came from their humble abodes
To get a jolt from my electrodes

They did the mash
They did the Monster Mash
The Monster Mash
It was a graveyard smash
They did the mash
It caught on in a flash
The Monster Mash
It's called the Monster Mash

Zombies were having fun
The party had just begun
The guests included wolfman
Dracula and his little baby boy

The scene was rocking
All the digging sounds
Igor unchained ? ? ? ?
The coffin bangers were about to arrive
With a local group the beach boy five

They did the mash
They did the Monster Mash
The Monster Mash
It was a graveyard smash
They did the mash
It caught on in a flash
The Monster Mash
It's called the Monster Mash

Mmmm, what luck girl in the audience
Would care to dance with igor?
The Monster Mash is so ghoul
Muah ha ha ha
Muah ha ha ha

 

[MinnieM123]

@KentB3 , you're on quite a roll here with your Halloween theme!

(I think you've outdone yourself this time.)

 

[KentB3]

Don't wish it away
Don't look at it like it's forever
Between you and me I could honestly say
That things can only get better

And while I'm away
Dust out the demons inside
And it won't be long before you and me run
To the place in our hearts where we hide

And I guess that's why they call it the blues
Time on my hands could be time spent with you
Laughing like children, living like lovers
Rolling like thunder under the covers
And I guess that's why they call it the blues

Just stare into space
Picture my face in your hands
Live for each second without hesitation
And never forget I'm your man

Wait on me girl
Cry in the night if it helps
But more than ever I simply love you
More than I love life itself

And I guess that's why they call it the blues
Time on my hands could be time spent with you
Laughing like children, living like lovers
Rolling like thunder under the covers
And I guess that's why they call it the blues

Wait on me girl
Cry in the night if it helps
But more than ever I simply love you
More than I love life itself

And I guess that's why they call it the blues
Time on my hands could be time spent with you
Laughing like children, living like lovers
Rolling like thunder under the covers
And I guess that's why they call it the blues

And I guess that's why they call it the blues
Laughing like children, living like lovers
And I guess that's why they call it the blues
Laughing like children, living like lovers
And I guess that's why they call it the blues
And I guess that's why they call it the blues

 

[KentB3]

Who's peekin' out from under a stairway
Calling a name that's lighter than air
Who's bending down to give me a rainbow
Everyone knows it's Windy

Who's tripping down the streets of the city
Smilin' at everybody she sees
Who's reachin' out to capture a moment
Everyone knows it's Windy

And Windy has stormy eyes
That flash at the sound of lies
And Windy has wings to fly
Above the clouds
(Above the clouds)
Above the clouds
(Above the clouds)

And Windy has stormy eyes
That flash at the sound of lies
And Windy has wings to fly
Above the clouds
(Above the clouds)
Above the clouds
(Above the clouds)

Who's tripping down the streets of the city
Smilin' at everybody she sees
Who's reachin' out to capture a moment
Everyone knows it's Windy

Who's tripping down the streets of the city
Smilin' at everybody she sees
Who's reachin' out to capture a moment
Everyone knows it's Windy

Who's tripping down the streets of the city
Smilin' at everybody she sees
Who's reachin' out to capture a moment
Everyone knows it's Windy

Who's tripping down the streets of the city
Smilin' at everybody she sees
Who's reachin' out to capture a moment
Everyone knows it's Windy

Who's tripping down the streets of the city
Smilin' at everybody she sees
Who's reachin' out to capture a moment
Everyone knows it's Windy

 

[KentB3]

Everyday I hear a different story
People saying that you're no good for me
"Saw your lover with another and she's making a fool of you"

If you loved me baby you'd deny it
But you laugh and tell me I should try it
Tell me I'm a baby, and I don't understand

But you know that I'll forgive you
Just this once, twice, forever
'Cause baby, you could drag me to hell and back
Just as long as we're together
And you do

I don't want your freedom
I don't want to play around
I don't want nobody baby
Part time love just brings me down
I don't need your freedom
Girl, all I want right now is you

Like a prisoner who has his own key
But I can't escape until you love me
I just go from day to day knowing all about the other boys
You take my hand and tell me I'm a fool to give you all that I do
I bet you someday baby someone says the same to you

But you know that I'll forgive you
Just this once twice forever
'Cause baby, you could drag me to hell and back
Just as long as we're together
And you do

I don't want your freedom
I don't want to play around
I don't want nobody baby
Part time love just brings me down
I don't want your freedom
Girl, all I want right now is you

(Hug me baby, hug me baby)
(Hug me baby, hug me baby)

But you know that I'll forgive you
Just this once twice forever
'Cause baby, you could drag me to hell and back
Just as long as we're together
And you do

I don't want your freedom
I don't need to play around
I don't want nobody baby
Part time love just brings me down
I don't want your freedom
I don't want to play around
I don't want nobody baby
Part time love just brings me down
(I don't want your)

The tide is high but I'm holding on
I'm gonna be your number one

I'm not the kind of girl who gives up just like that
Oh, no

It's not the things you do that tease and wound me bad
But it's the way you do the things you do to me

I'm not the kind of girl who gives up just like that
Oh, no

The tide is high but I'm holding on
I'm gonna be your number one
Number one, number one

Every girl wants you to be her man
But I'll wait my dear 'til it's my turn

I'm not the kind of girl who gives up just like that
Oh, no

The tide is high but I'm holding on
I'm gonna be your number one
Number one, number one

Every girl wants you to be her man
But I'll wait my dear 'til it's my turn

I'm not the kind of girl who gives up just like that
Oh, no

The tide is high but I'm holding on
I'm gonna be your number one
The tide is high but I'm holding on
I'm gonna be your number one
The tide is high but I'm holding on
I'm gonna be your number one
your number one
