1960s Garage Rock Lyrics - Podcast 1

Have you heard our very first podcast? It featured four great 1960s Garage Rock songs that you don't hear very often today, if at all! I would invite some of today's bands to cover these great tunes. To help the cause, I'll list the lyrics to the songs on our first podcast, as I hear them.



Scream Loud - The Quests (Visit their website)

If you really want me, yeah, scream loud, scream loud.

Or I won't hear you, I'll
never know you're there, I'll
never realize that you may
really care
and so, I'll say to you...

If you really want me, yeah, scream loud, scream loud.

For the words that you say may not
come into my heart
I'll never know if we should
really part
and so before I go...

If you really want me, yeah, scream loud, scream loud.

[Guitar Break]

Cuz if you really want me,
tell the world you do!
I want them all to know our
love can be true!
And so before I go...

If you really want me, yeah, scream loud, scream loud.

Or I won't hear you,
I'll never know you're there,
I'll never realize that you may
really care
and so, I'll say to you...

If you really want me, yeah, scream loud, scream loud.



I Want you - Toni & Terri

Hey hey hey girl, take a look at me.
It's really hard I know, since you never saw me before.
You know what I want, I want you!

That don't matter none when you're young.
What do you expect me to do?
Get up and walk out with you?
You know what I want, I want you!

Maybe you oughta walk away!
Why should I go, why cant I stay, no matter what the people say?
Maybe you oughta walk away!
Why let em live your life for you, come on and do what you wanna do with me!

[harmonia break]

Hey hey hey girl, you better start livin', yeah.
Its time you had some thoughts of your own.
Life's too short, the red tape's too long.

You dont have to be like everybody else, no.
I never met anyone like you.
And I'm tired of doin' everything other people do.
You know what I want babe, I want you!

I'm glad I listened to what you said.
Why should I go, why cant I stay, no matter what the people say?
I'm glad I listened to what you said.
Why let em live your life for you, come on and do what you wanna do with me!

I want you!!!!
Oh, I need you!
I want you!!!!
And I love you too!
I want you!!!!
And I'll be with you!
I want you!!!!
Oh, I want you!


Some Day - The Resumes

Hey girl I wanna talk to you,
I've got somethin' to say.
I'm gonna be leavin' you,
I may be back someday.

I'll do what I wanna do,
I'll find a way,
to keep on lovin' you
as I do today, as I do today, today, today!

I've got to keep moving on,
don't ask me where.
I'm travellin' all alone,
you must beware.
Lord no, I gotta be gone,
don't really care.
I'll stop in one o' those towns
where there's time to spare, there's time to spare, to spare, to spare! aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh!

[Extremely Cool Fuzz Guitar Break]

I've cheated, I've run around,
Lookin' for some pay.
I haven't any friends in town,
so I'll be on my way, my way, my way!

I'll stay in a cheap hotel,
and earn my pay.
And when I'll pay my bill,
I'll be on my way.

All of that will pay my friend,
If I found a way.
Divert the spell my friend,
So I'll get right someday, someday, someday!


Painted Air - The Remaining Few

Here I lie on my deathbed,
Recalling things said,
As my world slips away.

A man stands over me,
one final plea,
though I disagree.

Cars,
daytime and light,
running red light.
Other drivers won't yield.

People stand without sound,
tears touch the ground,
and soon dry away.

Great selection, and "Painted air"'s quite a revelation.

I first heard "I want you" two days ago, and stumbled upon it here quite by chance! It's a stunner, the best of at most three duets I can think of that don't suck. Anyone know anything more about Toni & Terri? Where were they based? And was it 1967?

Best,
