Boy
From New York City was a hit by the Ad Libs in 1965. The way these girls talk about a boy (indeed from New York City) definitely sounds "60's".
in 1981. Many bands used it to demonstrate their virtuosity, often without instrumental support.

Ooo wah, ooo wah cool, cool kitty
Tell us about the boy from New York City
Ooo wah, ooo wah come on kitty
Tell us about the boy from New York City
He's kind of tall
He's really fine
Some day I hope to make him mine, all mine
And he's neat
And oh so sweet
And just the way he looked at me
He swept me off my feet
Ooo whee, you ought to come and see
How he walks
And how he talks
Ooo wah, ooo wah cool, cool kitty
Tell us about the boy from New York City
He's really down
And he's no clown
He has the finest penthouse I've ever seen in town
And he's cute
In his mohair suit
And he keeps his pockets full of spending loot
Ooo whee, you ought to come and see
His dueling scar
His brand new car
Every time he says he loves me
Chills run down my spine
Every time he wants to kiss me
He makes me feel so fine
Ooo wah, ooo wah cool, cool kitty
Tell us about the boy from New York City
Well he can dance
And make romance
That's when I fell in love
With just one glance
He was shy
And so was I
And now I know I'll never, ever say goodbye
Ooo whee, you ought to come and see
He's my most
From coast to coast
Ooo wah, ooo wah cool, cool kitty
Tell us about the boy from New York City
Ooo wah, ooo wah c'mon kitty
Tell us about the boy from New York City
