Boy likes girl
girl likes boy
what can go wrong?
From the feeling this song puts out- just about everything because it’s all about falling in love with someone that you know isn’t good for you.
That aside, a several of my friends named their daughters ” Ramona ” after this song which is interesting because my Mom said people in her day were naming their daughters after Debbie Reynolds and Elizabeth Taylor.
To me, that’s an odd choice because Ramona, Elizabeth and Debbie all had issues and personally I wouldn’t have named my daughter after any of them.
At any rate Johnny gets a shout out here in the lyrics and it’s in keeping with Jim Adam’s Song Lyric Sunday prompt where we were inspired to explore songs with the names ” John and Jack ” in the works.
I hope you like my choice.

Hey Johnny, hey Dee Dee
Little Tom and Joey
You know we’re comin’ over
Sweet sweet little Ramona
You’re getting better and better
It’s getting easier than ever
Hey you kids in the crowd
You know you like it
When the music’s loud
Sweet sweet little Ramona
she always wants to come over
Sweet sweet little Ramona
I think I’ll try and phone her
I let her in if you’re wondering why
Cause she’s a spy for the BBI
I let her in and I started to cry
And then I knew I wanted to die
Oooh, little Ramona

Anita Marie great choice going with the Ramones. Ramona works for the British Bureau of Intelligence and this guy is infatuated with her. However because she was a spy, it led him to feel confused and frustrated over his feelings for her because he didn’t know if they were faked or if she did it to get information.
