Subject: Who sang this song?
Written By: micah on 08/17/07 at 2:28 pm
The song is called "Playboy" & it came out, I believe, in early 1968. I think a duo sang it, a woman & a man. Any help would be greatly appreciated. http://www.inthe00s.com/smile/13/icon_scratch.gif

The Marvelettes had a song called "Playboy", but that came out in 1962... Still, it could've been covered in 1968 (by a duo that I don't know...yet).
Here's a link to the Marvelettes page, where you can check the lyrics & listen to their song (the latter only available if you're a US resident). Maybe you recognize it? ???

Unfortunately that's not the song. I can't remember most of the words, but those weren't it.

Well, then this must be it I suppose...
Playboy - Gene & Debbe
Hey boy, to me you're just a playboy
Never mean a word you say, boy
I'm so afraid you'll go away and leave me lonely
Why girl do you believe a lie girl
Why can't you see that you're my girl
Believe me when I say to you
I love you only
And never knew that love could hurt me like this
Till you came along with your kiss
Then I fell under your spell
Knowing quite well that you would only hurt me
Gee girl why can't I make you see girl
Just what you mean to me girl
Then you would know I'd never go away without you
Oh boy I wish that I could know boy
If what you say is so boy
Then I would never care what they all say about you
I never knew that love could hurt me like this
Till you came along with your kiss
Then I fell knowing quite well
That someone would tell you I would only hurt you
Hey now does it matter what they say
Gonna love you anyway now
If you and I would fight together
I know we'll find love
Here's a link to the Gene & Debbe pages on Allmusic.com, in case you wanna know more.
Allmusic is a great source of info on any song or artist that ever charted in US, btw. I use it quite frequently.
