My Old School - Steely Dan

 

"Oleanders growing outside her door
Soon they're gonna be in bloom
Up in Annandale.
I can't stand her
Doing what she did before
Living like a gypsy queen
In a fairy tale."

"Popsicle" - Jan & Dean.

 

Was originally by "The Todds". Jan & Dean put a little "surf vibe" into the song. But both are cute. Reminds you of chasing the ice cream cart/wagon/truck and saving popsicle sticks.

"Love Potion No. 9" - Originally by The Clovers - a lot of covers of this song but still my favorite is by The Searchers. I think they were the first to do a cover.
