    Default Solved: What song do these lyrics come from???

    I've been looking for the artist and title of this song that I used to hear on the radio back in the mid 60's or so on a local station in central Florida. So far I've had no luck at all. I've searched for many years now.
    Some of the verse lyric goes something like this"

    "Look at the water, under the bridge.
    Something is movin', I wonder what it is.
    It's my little sister, in love with a man.
    Mama is cryin', but papa don't give a damn."

    Some of the chorus lines were:

    "Little sister don't you worry.
    You will love again someday…"

    Does anyone recognize this?
    Thanks,
    dd

    Um, "Little Sister" by Diсk Dodd?
    It's funnier in Enochian

    Unfortunately, I'm not sure you'll be able to find it easily. As far as I know, it has never been released on CD.

    Here's the cover of the vinyl album (1968):



    But I'm pretty sure that's the song you're talking about.

    Yes, this is proving to be a hard item to locate. It was recorded by **** Dodd on his album "The First Evolution of **** Dodd". It was apparently also recorded by the Standells and is on a release of theirs called "Rarities", but it's not on their release called "Riot on Sunset Blvd/Rarities". Kind of a bear trying to find this song. does anyone have a copy of it you want to sell?

    Great job, Dan!

    Dave, you might want to check the link Dan offered above.


    P.S. I believe Dodd and the rest of the Standells got together again in 2000 (was it?), and are still playing.
