Yes, "The Leaves" version is the one a lot of 60's local bands played that song which was before the Hendrix cover. According to Youtube, Billy Roberts wrote the original song. I wasn' t a fan of what I called Garage Band music back then as it sounded like everyone playing too loud and not on the best equipment usually. I had a bass player teach me that riff and I just remembered it vaguely--hey that was a long time ago and I was about 15 in 1966!
Congrats, you win a small box of Sun Maid raisens!

Very elegant clue. Kind of "Puzzle Minimalism" with just 3 initials/letters that each repeat once.
So I imagine that when looking for Eddie's song yesterday you were glancing at "best garage band hits of the Sixties" cuz a top five song on anyone's list would work here, only problem is it leaves just a "T" and a "K" --one letter band and one word song. Coming up zilch despite countless lists of one word song titles.
So maybe this is a red herring?
I PM'd you two songs/bands that work to solve your puzzle, but I can't imagine it's not the one hinted at above.

Just to clarify, for anyone else playing, the song I thought might be a red herring (top five all-time Sixties garage band song that leaves just a "T" and a "K") was indeed a red herring, a road to nowhere, so beware!

One of the songs was banned in some places because of the lyric...and even edited by some radio stations

If it's Louie Louie by The Kingsmen.............I listened and listened to those lyrics a hundred times I would guess and heard some of the phrases, but still unclear on others. Does anyone hear remember Steve Allen reciting pop lyrics in a sophisticated delivery on TV? It was hilarious. This is just one song he recited below.

Wild guess: The Kinks, “Lola” and The Knickerbockers, “Lies.” Does this get me honorable mention? (I see where Mike probably got it already!)(And I’m probably wrong.)
excellent job Craig...you got it...yes Mike did get it but he was using his quantum computer...LOL...I'll post the songs

Songwriter Jerry Fuller clue clinched for me…indirect clue anyway. Wrote for Gary P. and The Union Gap and wrote “Lies.” Drummer for The Knickerbockers left for the Righteousness Brothers, replacing Bill Medley….

John, I really don't think this answer will be correct, but as I haven't heard the song I'm thinking in years but it somehow triggered "Don't fence me in."
I may have to re-think this one. There are famous versions that don't use this in the intro. Doris Day being one of them. Maybe in a little bit I'll post a few notes of the title melody. Darn, I should've done more research.

Don't be down on yourself, John...I have an unfair advantage...I'm communicating with my dearly departed mother's spirit...that's the only way I seem to be answering some of these tunes correctly... she sang many of these songs back in the day...LOLOLOL

Well Craig, that narrows it down to these: Bee Gees The Chordettes Eagles The Four Aces The Four Freshmen Gladys Knight and The Pips The Lennon Sisters The Lettermen The McGuire Sisters Michigan Jake The Oak Ridge Boys The Pied Pipers Smokey Robinson and The Miracles The Vogues The Weavers
Out of that list and the notes you gave. I lean towards the Bee Gees.
Not The Bee Gees. The group is on that list John! Clue: this song was the main theme song for a comedy show in the ‘90s-mid 2000s. The star of this show still works in TV but in a different capacity than actor. Hope this helps!
