There's a girl living in this town
She's a fox and she knows it well
All the fellows for miles around want to get her but they never will
Just to have a girl with so much class
They'd crawl a mile over broken glass
And she'd let em do it just for a game
Deborah's her name

Deborah
Heart breaking love making connissure
Deborah
Deborah's her name

She's the kind that never follows fashion
Gotta make up her own
All the other kids quick to catch on act like they've always known
But you should see em when the lights go down
Looking at her as she moves around
Pretty soon they're gonna look the same as the famous Deborah

Deborah
Heart breaking love making connissure
Deborah
Deborah's her name

One day when my ship comes in
I'm gonna make her wonder where I've been
I'll get some money and I'll jump in my car
I'll go and make a meal of Deborah
I'll take her driving up to the top
When we get started ain't gonna stop
I'm gonna go and pick that wild flower
And her name is Deborah

Deborah
Heart breaking love making connissure
Deborah
Deborah's her name
Deborah's her name
Deborah's her name
Deborah's her name

 I recently bought a couple Rockpile CDs - solid rock and roll.

Shades of Buddy Holly, I dig it.

I'd like to hear some Dave Edmunds and Rockpile here.

Actually, quite a bit of it sounds like Victoria.... kind of a ripoff?
 
Spect  Dave might have had Buddy Holly, "Peggy Sue" in mind.

"connoisseur"  ;-) 
Wondering you know a lot about Canadian music, was it just your interest in music  generally, or did you live in Canada a one time or know someone in the music scene there? meant to get this in with Martha and the Muffins  
One of the "Rockpile" albums issued under Dave's or Nick's name due to contracts... but it's Rockpile. This is one I have on vinyl but never got it in digital. Might have to rectify that.
{#Devil_pimp}zesty! dave Edmunds, nick lowe, rockpile yes I think rp has room for more of this
i think the turntable is set to 45.
Starts out just like the Kinks' Victoria... which would also be very nice to hear!
Heck, I'd even take "Slipping Away."
Let's hear "Crawlin from the Wreckage" too!
I think Deborah is "Goin Up the Country"......
:D Love it. More Dave Edmunds!
