Can you write an amusing paragraph or 2 or more that includes these VINTAGE song titles?
It was 1965. I was taking my girlfriend, Carol Sue, to the dance after the big football game against Clay Center. I wore a white sport coat and a pink carnation, and thought I looked pretty slick. The dance was in the old school gym, because they didn't want us fouling up the floor in the newer gym. One of the scores of local garage bands was playing at the hop. This one was Maureen and the Marksmen, led by Maureen, who fronted the band with a saxophone, and could do the splits while she played. Their theme song was "Land of a Thousand Dances." They did a creditable job, although they were all white Catholics. My date, Carol Sue, looked like a party doll. She had hairsprayed her beehive to death, so that when we slow danced and I held my cheek tenderly against her, it felt like I was leaning against a brick wall. Carol Sue was dressed pretty modestly, a sweater over her white blouse with a pixie collar of chantilly lace. I belonged to the nerd crowd, and my friend Don Lambert laughingly suggested that we request the band to play The Ballad of Davy Crockett. I talked him out of it. At the end of the evening, I took Carol Sue home, receiving a chaste, dry kiss at the front door. "Call me," she said. "That'll be the day," I thought.
Reply:at the hop, he escorted the party doll to the dance floor. her in chantilly lace and he in a white sports coat and pink carnation, they tripped the light fantastic to "the ballad of davey crockett". he asked her if she would go bungee jumping with him after the dance and she laughed, saying "that'll be the day". he thought she was chicken, but in actuality, she found base diving more fun.
Reply:Lisa stepped into her pickup truck wearing a white sprots coat and a pink carnation. She was on the phone wiht her friend Sam who's birthday will be comming up in 5 days. Lisa says, That will be the day when you're party theme will be The Ballad of Davy Crockett. Lisa pulled up and was at the hop. She went inside and did her favorite dance the Chantilly Lace. Everybody thought she was a party doll.
Reply:So, my party doll, Chantilly Lace, and I were bopping and stepping to the tune of The Ballad of Davy Crockett, at the hop. I was fashionably dressed in a white sports coat and a pink carnation, while she was wearing her bobby sox and poodle skirt combination.



Judy and Johnny were there too, with Johnny looking like an angry caveman.



My girl's pony tail and pretty face whirled and twisted and twisted again in front of me. I thought I was getting boogie fever.



Overcome with emotion, taking me over, I got down on my knee, opened the little jewel box, and showed her this diamond ring.



"Oh Shantilly, please go all the way!" I cried.



"That'll be the day," she replied, grabbing a drink and dumping it onto my long beautiful hair.



Then Hayden Panettiere walked into the room. Then I only had eyes for... You get the picture?
Reply:It was my senior year in high school. I was at the hop, wearing a white sports coat %26amp; a pink carnation. My gf, Betty was at my side, looking like a party doll dressed in Chantilly lace.

We danced the night away %26amp; towards the end, the band started taking requests. Betty requested The Ballad of Davy Crockett. The band leader just laughed %26amp; said, "That'll be the day". Betty, who always had a short temper, left in a huff without waiting for me. She didn't bother to call %26amp; never returned my calls. I haven't seen or heard from her since.
