Sorry Karen, I don't know yours either Undecided

Who knows these lyrics...

The night we met I knew I needed you so
And if I ever had the chance I'd never let you go
So won't you say you love me I'll make you so proud of me
We'll make 'em turn their heads every place we go

The Ronettes "Be My Baby" - great song!

I don't know who sang Gangster either, Karen.

Who sang Christmas in Prison?

And I think a Mule Skinner is somebody who specifically has to look after them, but don't know the answers to the other questions Captain. Clever little post this one Robert, accept two brownie points!! Lol
