Hey,Michigan!

Thanks for posting the lyrics to "Gimmie Some Lovin'!" I have had this song in my collection for 25 years (this year!)and I could never understand what the heck Steve W. was singing! The title line is easy,but in the 60s,where you can't have a song longer than 3min:30sec,the rest is pretty run together. It's a kick butt song but until now,I actually thought he was saying,"Well I feel so good,everything's banana pie!" "You better take it easy,guns are ready to fire (fi-uh!)"

A thousand thanks!

Aurevoir!
