"Spooky," written by Buddy Buie, J. R. Cobb, Harry Middlebrooks and Mike Sharpiro, was the Classics IV's first top 10 hit, rising to no. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in at the winter of 1967 (Whitburn, 2013). The song was originally recorded by saxophonist Mike Sharpe as an instrumental track, which landed at no. 57 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1967; The Atlanta Rhythm Section (ARS) also charted with their version hitting no. 17 on the chart in 1979 (Whitburn, 2013). The ARS recording sounds a lot like the Classic IV's recording, which most likely happened because three of the Classic IV's members formed the ARS (songfacts, 2023).
Lyrics:
In the cool of the evening when ev'rything is gettin' kind of groovy,
I call you up and ask you if you want to go and meet and see a movie,
First you say no, you've got some plans for the night,
And then you stop, and say, "All right."
Love is kinda crazy with a spooky little girl like you.
You always keep me guessin', I never seem to know what you are thinkin'.
When every fella looks at you, I'm sure your little eye'll be a-winkin'.
I get confused, 'cause I don't know where I stand,
And then you smile, and hold my hand.
Love is kinda crazy with a spooky little girl like you.
Spooky!
If you decide someday to stop this little game that you are playin',
I'm gonna tell you all the things my heart's been a-dyin' to be sayin'.
Just like a ghost, you've been a-hauntin' my dreams,
So I'll propose... on Halloween.
Love is kinda crazy with a spooky little girl like you.
Spooky,
Spooky,
All right
I said Spooky,
Ahwwww
Yeah Yeah
I said Spooky!
Yeah Yeah
