Songs with a girl's name as the first word of the song

"Suzie Q" CCR... assuming a pass on "oh"

 

Mentioned on the first page by Juan Hitwonder

 

“Laura, calls me in the middle of the night...”
Laura by Billy Joel

 

Darlene - Led Zeppelin

 

Anita You’re Dreaming ....

 

Lou might be the king of this. Honestly, there might be even more but off the top of my head:

Stephanie Says
Lisa Says
Caroline Says Pt 1
Caroline Says Pt 2 (same music as Lisa Says but new woman's name!)
Candy Says (with extra gender play)

 

No opening ah's, no prefatory oh's, but a few ooh's: "Jackie Blue" by the Ozark Mountain Daredevils:

 

Delia’s Gone.....

 

"Donna, Donna" - Everly Brothers

 

"Beryl" Mark Knopfler

 

Oak Ridge Boys -- "Elvira"

 

Actually he did and he didn’t... I meant the Chuck Berry song....

 

Nat King Cole -- "Mona Lisa"

 

And of course...the biggie... Jolene.... unless I missed a previous post...

 

OK, you got it. I don't remember the CB song, but I'm not well versed on him at all.

 

Mary Queen of Arkansas - Springsteen

Going to cheat a little on this one by Bruce. Cynthia. Technically he starts the song with well, alright but it's more of a count in for the band and not words for the song itself .

Bob

 

The Rolling Stones cover then? It’s part of rock and roll 101 class...

 

"Carol Jane" - Everly Brothers

 

Does Aerosmith Janie’s Got a Gun count? Can’t tell if that intro qualifies as the first words of the song.

 

Of course there’s Maybellene ....

 

Probably not, it has all these lyrics before "Jamie's..."

Dum, dum, dum, honey, what have you done?
Dum, dum, dum, it's the sound of my gun
Dum, dum, dum, honey, what have you done?
Dum, dum, dum, it's the sound

 

yeah ...

My next submission is Penny Lane by The Beatles

 

Annabella - American Flyer ( Craig Fuller)

 

"Julia" The Beatles
