I'll bet you ten burritos that the song was the Four Seasons song, 'Sherry'.
This was also on the Joker's Wild 1965 EP.

I hope I'm right. Ten burritos is a big thing here in Florida.

Good guess, Shane, but that's not it. Jokers Wild obviously borrowed a LOT of stuff from The Four Seasons catalog. The song I'm talking about has more of a silly nature. (well, true, all of 4-S stuff was silly--but this even more so)

Hungry for a burrito, eh? Maybe y'all oughta open a Taco Bell or something there...I don't remember seeing much Mex food on the East coast...could be a money maker.***

I'm going to guess again... is it that odd "Lollipop" song?
I don't know if the Four Seasons did that one, but it's silly and has vocal harmonies...

And yes... we have Taco Bells here in Riverview. I like their food a lot... hence why I was going to bet ten burritos on my answer.

Man, you are SO close! It's not My Boy Lollipop, but it sounds just like it...You'll get it for sure next guess. (5 burritos)

Nice try Thor, but no. It's much sillier than Let's HO.

I don't eat at TB much either; I have a little authentic Mex restaurant near me that makes KILLER fajitas! Damn. I'm drooling all over my shirt...

Thor, you should be proud that you don't know any more 4 seasons stuff. I think burrito-boy went to bed, it is after midnight there---but he is so close! I'll wait til morning and see if he can get it.


If anyone scans thru the Four Seasons discography on something like "Allmusic" or whatever, the title will jump out at you when you see it.

The question appears in the last post on page 52. I think I may put a "bullitt" in the head of this one, though....It's a little too obscure.
