The Jonettes. Phil was in jail, Hal and Carol were hanging out with Brian, and there was not even "gentle" on Glen Campbell's mind. So I did it myself.
Story behind the song
I wanted Phil Spector and the Wrecking Crew on this one. But that was not to be had. So I ended up grabbing some singers and dropping it at home!
Lyrics
Remember back when we were only kids
Can you believe the silly things we did
Frank and Debbie stole her daddy’s car
They tried to sneak into the local bar
They swore their love on a shooting star
But that promise they made didn’t go too far
But it was a party we were having fun
We were little kiddies surfing in the sun
This is the story of how it begun
We were young
We went together and we had a blast
We knew back then that it would always last
Timmy and Bobby ran the streets at night
They ran around looking for a fight
But there was no fighting it was just a joke
And we found them in Woolworth’s sipping on a Coke
It was a party we were having fun
And from what we’ve heard we weren’t the only ones
This is the story of how it begun
We were young
How we got here I will never know
And this is how I think it sorta goes
Jonny showed up and then he proposed
At first we kissed and then we eloped
