G.T.O. Ronnie and the Daytonas Written by John Wilkin - Peak chart position # 4 in 1964 - The title track from their 1964 debut album for another Beach Boys' soundalike, this one from Nashville. The Daytonas had a little trouble hitting the high tenor notes in the studio, so they resorted to speeding up their voices for this song. TRANSCRIBER'S NOTE: Some lyrics are spelled phonetically, i.e., "why-ee-eye- ine" = whine, so as to look more like what was sung.
