Lyr Req: & Tune: Come and Go With Me (DooWop)

I need lyrics and at least the melody line of the DooWop tune "Come and Go With Me". NOT the gospel song already in the DigiTrad. I've got bits and pieces of the lyric, but not all of it. And everytime I hum it to myself, the tune changes. *LOL* Haven't been able to find a recording of it yet, but I'm looking.

If by some chance, anyone has made ABC of the main melody or (stroke of lightning chance) all four (five?) melodic lines, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE can I have them. I'm absolutely horrible at picking melodic lines out of several-part harmony like this. And I want to do it in those several parts.

I hate to admit exactly WHY I need/want this one, but I will. I have the beginnings of a truly horrible parody of it.

ANY help would be appreciated!

Come, Go With Me
The Del Vikings


[CHORUS]
Well, I love you, darlin',
Come and go with me,
Please don't send me
Way beyone the sea.
I love you, darling,
So, come go with me.

Come, come, come, come,
Come into my heart.
I need you darlin',
We will never part.
I'm begging you again, please,
Come and go with me.

Yes, I need you, yes, I really need you.
Please say you'll never leave me.
I'll prove I'm worthy of your sweet love,
If you just give me a chance.

[CHORUS]

You've gotta quench this ragin' fire
Burnin' deep in my heart;
Only your love can put out the flames.
I'll cry like a baby darlin', wa-wa-wa-wa,
If you don't tell me your name.

[SPOKEN]
Darlin', from the bottom of my sha-na-na,
To the top of my scooby-dooby-doo,
Every single part of me is so in love with you.
And I know I've said it before,
But I'll say it again, because it's true, oh yes, it's true.

Yes, I need you,
Yes, I really need you,
Please, say you'll never leave me.
Open up the history book of your life
And give this Footnote a chance.

Come, come, come, come,
Come and go with me.
I need you darlin',
Baby, can't you see,
That we'd make the perfect thing;
Come and go with me...
Come and go with me...
Come and go with me...

[Wah, wah, wah, wah-oooh]

Oh baby, I love you; Come and go with me.

Hmm, I found a CD with the song on it. Claims to be the original recording. Much simpler lyrics:

Come And Go With Me The Dell Vikings

Dom dom dom dom dom
Dumby dooby
Dom dom dom dom dom
Dumby dooby
Dom dom dom dom dom
Dumby dooby dom
Wa-wa-wa-wa-ah

Dom dom dom dom dom
Dumby dooby
Dom dom dom dom dom
Dumby dooby
Dom dom dom dom dom
Dumby dooby dom
Wa-wa-wa-wa-ah

Well, I love you, darlin',
Come and go with me,
Please don't send me
Way beyon' the sea.
I need you, darlin',
So, come go with me.

Come, come, come, come,
Come into my heart.
Tell me, darlin',
We will never part.
I need you, darlin'
So, come go with me.

Yes, I need you, yes, I really need you
Please say you never leave me.
Well, say you never
Yes, you really never
[BASSO] Never give me a chance
[FALSETTO: ohhh]

Come, come, come, come,
Come into my heart.
Tell me, darlin',
We will never part.
I need you, darlin'
So, come go with me.

[SHOUT] Yeah!
[INSTRUMENTAL BREAK]

Yes, I need you, yes, I really need you
Please say you'll never leave me.
Well, say you never
Yes, you really never
[BASSO] You never give me up
[FALSETTO: ohhh]
[BASSO] Up, Up

I love you, darlin',
Come and go with me,
Please don't send me
Way beyon' the sea.
I need you, darlin',
So, come go with me.
Come on, go with me.
Come on, go with me.
Come on, go with me.

Given the non sequiter of the bass's line before the break and the extreme amount of repetition in and between verses, I can easily believe that it was 'shined up' after the version I have.

P.S. Anybody got parts for it? The melody line is easy enough to pick out, but I'm having one hell of a time trying to sort out the 'tunes' for the three other voices. Bass ain't TOO bad, but the other voices are just not separable.
