I came across a post by Joe Moorehouse [[152.163.188.68) from March 2003, trying to help me id some songs. The tapes were off either WJLB, WCHB, CKLW or Swingin'Time from 1969 maybe 1970. I got the cassette recorder for Christmas 1968. His quote "Raucous, way uptempo hard soul song, male lead, lots of horns, female vocals, sounds mid-to-late-60s"
Here are the lyrics:
Alright, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey
Come on and listen to me baby
Annie [Better?] get your yo-yo
Wind it up and let it go
lookie, lookie, lookie lie [loop de loop de loop de li?]
Ever since you caught my eye
I’m your puppet on a string
I don’t mind cause everything is funky, funky
I’ll be anything that you want me
Like a kid in a candy store
Each time I see you I want more
Sugar I’m a [hog? or pawn?] for you
Just can’t get enough is true
When you turn the lights on
Oh my mind is plum gone___
____________________________
You’re my weakness_______

It’s Alright_______________
Funky, funky I’ll be anything that you want me
I’ll be anything that you want me
Like a kid in a candy store
Each time I see you I want more
Sugar I’m a [hog? or pawn?] for you
Just can’t get enough is true
Alright, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey
Alright, listen to me baby
Ahhhhh Mercy, Feels better.............
Any help is appreciated
