I was in the army from 1957 to 1959. I was stationed at Fort Polk, LA.
When I went to a city close to the base, I found a place with a juke box
which had a song going I really liked. I'm not sure of the name but I think it was, "Gonna Find It". One part of the lyrics was, "I'm Searching". Does anyone know what the name of this song is and where I could find it?

Sounds like Searchin' by the Coasters, also covered by other artists (like the Hollies, which is how I know it).

The Coasters, released 1958 (http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?id=59421940&s=143441)

My guess is The Coasters as well. :)

I was thinking it might be Searchin' by The Beatles.

Thank you ScruffyTheMac & Galley. "Searching" is the song I have been (searching) for, for a long time. Thank you so much. You are number one in my book. Winton :D
