As you wish

We've been asked to provide another clue to the song title suggested by the lyrics in the previous post. And so we will.

It's a song about a young couple and the very early days of their marriage. It was written by a rock'n'roll ground-breaker and covered very well by Bob Seger.

Here's something else the young couple did:

"They bought a souped-up jitney, 'twas a cherry red '53,
They drove it down New Orleans to celebrate their anniversary"

Enjoy!

  2. So Mike, did Dolores get it right? I've got to admit I was stumped on that one, though when you wrote "rock'n'roll ground-breaker" one of the people I thought of right away was Chuck Berry.

    But the only lyrics of his I could think of were from "Maybelline" and "Johnny B Goode", and those didn't match up. I'm not familiar with "You Never Can Tell".
