Name the song the line is from Part II

I’ve had equipment trouble today. So, I hope a nap is all my CPU needed.
What we got here is “Whatcha see is whatcha get”. I want to say it was the Main Ingredient, but I don’t think it was them.

There was this in 1979:

We got the rhythm tonight
All the rest know we're the best

Pretty sure I know your song, Cyndee, but I'd probably best not answer and post lyrics. A business trip will have me in Amarillo tomorrow.

In the meantime, I hope that rascally CPU behaves for you.

See everyone on Friday.


(Edit: Whatcha See Is Whatcha Get was done by the Dramatics. You remember them, right? Neither do I.)





Have a good time, if you can, Jim. Amarillo, huh? Will you be going for a steak at Big Texan?

I couldn't eat a quarter of one of those things.

Shake Your Groove
Alvin and the Chipmunks - doubt if they were the original, but they are the only ones I know

This one you can take your pick - 1971 or 1977 plus some re-releases after 2000
I hope that Jim will know this one.

************** NEW ***************

There's a church bell ringing
hear the song of joy that it's singing

OK Tony, I'll admit I cheated on this one, but that comment sparked my curiosity.

How did you ever find a song named Is This The Way To Amarillo?. That's hilarious.

Heading out soon. See you all tomorrow.

I'll leave it open.




Mmm, steak

To thrill you with delight,
I'll give you diamonds bright.
There'll be things that will excite,
To make you dream of me at night.

Oh what a great song to start the day -

For Your Love - The Yardbirds
I wore my copy out and replaced it!


Here is some 1972 to cheer the morning

Edited to add clues -
Fortunately for this singer, this song was a big hit - the only one that he ever had.
This singer also wrote this song - others have covered it.

******** NEW **********

Birds are singing, you’re by my side,
let’s take a car and go for a ride,

Adding a couple of lines from the opening verse -

I've got someone waiting for me
And when I see her I know that she'll say . . .

OK - Here is the middle eight -

Hi, hi, hi, ______ ________
This is my, my, my, ______ ________
When you say, say, say, say that you love me
Oh, my, my, my it's __ __________ _______

Not sure if nobody knows this one or if everyone is busy.
Let me know if you would like the answer

Than ks

Those middle lines sound familiar. I'm singing them in my head, lol. Is it something like "Beautiful Sunday?" Or "Beautiful Day?"

I remember 1972 -- it was before I started listening to country music.
