County Fair

(B. Wilson/Usher)

This time each year in our hometown

The county fair comes our way

Where the folks gather round to be happy and spend

their day

A-here's what happened now,

I soon decide that I'd take with me

The most specialest girl I knew

I had her pack us a lunch and on down the dirt road

we flew

Right then I knew what I had to do

Before that day was through

I had to win a stuffed doggie or I'd break her poor

heart in two

A let me tell you now,

I passed up a chance when I walked by a booth

Where you throw a dart and break a balloon

I snuck by a couple more, but I had to get caught real

soon

I hit the rubber stump just as hard as I could

But I didn't make it ring the bell

I tried again and again, but I just didn't do so well

Can you believe it now,

Up walked a fella and he tapped me on the shoulder,

said

I can win your girl a prize

So, he flexed all his muscles and knocked the bell up

in the sky

Yeah the big strong guy knocked the bell in the sky

Took my girl and the doggie away





Ten Little Indians

(B. Wilson/Usher)

Ten little Indian boys

The first little Indian gave squaw pretty feather

The second little Indian made her an Indian dollar

Well the third little Indian gave her moccasin leather

The squaw didn't like them at all

The fourth little Indian took her riding in his big

canoe

The fifth little Indian took her down the waterfall

The sixth little Indian taught the squaw how to woo-

woo

But the squaw didn't like them at all

One little, two little, three little Indians

Four little, five little, six little Indians

Seven little, eight little, nine little Indians

Ten little Indian boys

The seventh little Indian took her over to his tepee

The eighth little Indian tried to give her a love poem

The ninth little Indian said "You're my Kemosabe"

The squaw didn't like them at all

The tenth little Indian said it really didn't matter

He acted like himself and he didn't look at her

The squaw didn't care if he never did a thing

Cause she loved the tenth Indian boy

Loved the tenth Indian boy

Chug-A-Lug

(B. Wilson/Usher/Love)

Here a mug, there a mug, everybody chug-a-lug


Gary likes a girl's tight black pants

Larry knows he doesn't stand a chance

Carl says hurry up and order it quick

Dave gets out to chase that chick

Dennis wonders what's under the hood

A big chrome tach and it sounds real good

I go down to the root beer stand

And drink up all that I can

Give me some root beer



Cold beer, root beer


Brian's still glued to the radio

Louie's lookin' out the rear window

Guy's got around to ordering fries

But root beer's my best buy











Root beer, need another mug now

Root beer, chug-a-lug-a-lug now

Heads You Win Tails I Lose

(B. Wilson/Usher)

Every time

We have a fight

We flip a coin

To see who's right

Why do we have to gamble just to see who's right?

Why can't we arbitrarily resolve a fight?

But with your style of gambling there's no chance to

win

That's how it is, and that's the way it's always been

Heads, you win

Tails, I lose

Heads, you win

Tails, I lose

Bad news

If we were playing cards you'd be the one to deal

You'd play with loaded dice and fix the roulette

wheel

You pick them at the races like I've never seen

And then you make me pay off like a slot machine

Heads, you win

Tails, I lose

Heads, you win

Tails, I lose

Bad news

Oh well, match me honey

Take my money

You know the odds are yours

So flip the coin

I'm going to make some changes with this gambling

game

From now on I'm the dealer and I'll do the same

I'll load my dice and stack the deck and fix the odds

again

So if you want to flip to see who's right I know I'll

win

Heads, I win

Tails, you lose

Heads, I win

Tails, you lose

Bad news

Oh well, match me honey

Take my money

You know the odds are yours

So flip the coin

Summertime Blues

(Cochran/Capehart)

I'm going to raise a fuss, I'm going to raise a holler

About a working all summer just to try to earn a

dollar

Every time I call my baby, and ask to get a date

My boss says, "No dice son, you got to work late"

Sometimes I wonder what I'm a going to do

But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues

Well my mom and pop told me, "Son you got to make

some money"

If you want to use the car to go riding next Sunday

Well I didn't go to work, told the boss I was sick

"Well you can't use the car 'cause you didn't work a

lick"



I'm going to take the weeks, going to have a fine

vacation

I'm going to take my problem to the United Nations

Well I called my congressman and he said "Whoa!"

"I'd like to help you son but you're too young to vote"



We knew it must have been late

Cuckoo Clock

(B. Wilson/Usher)

We had no time to wait

I went to light the fireplace

I planned it all this way, and

I snuggled close to her

Her heart began to purr

I held my breath inside, and then

I put my arms around her

Cuckoo, cuckoo (go away silly bird)



Cuckoo, cuckoo

I put that birdie away

His cuckoo was gone to stay

We both apologized for why

Forgave that doggone cuckoo

I went back to her side

I had to swallow my pride

The fire had almost died away

We just got situated




Cuckoo, cuckoo

I took that clock apart

I broke the cuckoo's heart

He'll never bother us again

We just forgot about him




Cuckoo, cuckoo

The Shift

(B. Wilson/Love)

Check out the chick with the new dress on

The call it a shift and it comes on strong

When she's got it on, well she can't do no wrong

You may think a dress can't do very much

With the slit up the side, you can't resist that touch

It's tighter than a moo-moo and it's just too much

Turns me on now (get a shift now)

Can't go wrong now (go wrong now)


Turns me on now (turns me on now)

Get your girl a shift and she'll look real fine

It fits like a glove and drives you outta your mind

She'll ball it with her shift on and we'll have a good

time

Shut Down

(B. Wilson/Christian)

Tach it up, tach it up

Buddy going to shut you down

It happened on the strip where the road is wide

Two cool shorts standing side by side

Yeah, my fuel injected Stingray and a four-thirteen

Revving up our engines and it sounds real mean

Tach it up, tach it up, tach it up

Buddy going to shut you down

Declining numbers at an even rate

At the count of one we both accelerate

My Stingray is light the slicks are starting to spin

But the four-thirteen's really digging in

Got to be cool now power shift here we go

Super-stock Dodge is winding out in low

But my fuel injected Stingray's really starting to go

To get the traction I'm riding the clutch

My pressure plate's burning that machine's too

much

Pedal's to the floor hear the dual quads drink

And now the four-thirteen's lead is starting to

shrink

He's hot with ram induction but it's understood

I got a fuel injected engine sitting under my hood

Shut it off, shut it off buddy now I shut you down

Catch A Wave

(B. Wilson/Love)

Catch a wave and you're sitting on top of the

world

Don't be afraid to try the greatest sport around

(Everybody tries it once)

Those who don't just have to put it down

You paddle out turn around and raise

And baby that's all there is to the coastline craze

You got to catch a wave and you're sitting on top

of the world

Not just a fad cause it's been going on so long

(All the surfers going strong)

They said it wouldn't last too long

They'll eat their words with a fork and spoon

And watch them they'll hit the road and all be

surfin' soon

And when they catch a wave they'll be sitting on

top of the world

Catch a wave and your sitting on top of the world

So take a lesson from a top-notch surfer boy

(Get yourself a big board)

But don't you treat it like a toy

Just get away from the shady turf

And baby go catch some rays on the sunny surf

And when you catch a wave you'll be sitting on top

of the world

Catch a wave and you'll be sittin' on top of the

world

The Surfer Moon

(B. Wilson)

There's a moon in the sky somewhere I know

Waiting for all the love to burn below

If you fall and it happens all to soon

Blame it all on the surfer moon

'Neath the hill 'hind the cloud one dreamy night

Rising up throwing down its golden light

If your heart hears this melancholy tune

Then you'll know it's the surfer moon

Brings the tide in

Takes it all away

Helps us ride in

Brings us waves each day

I say

Other moons have brought light and love before

Promising to remain for evermore

But they all disappeared with each new tune

They make way for the surfer moon

Moon

Moon

South Bay Surfer

(Foster/B. Wilson/D. Wilson/A. Jardine)

Look out here come those South Bay surfers

California's getting hot

There they go cruising down that coastline

Looking for their favourite spot

We'll find the big one

Oh the boys are rough and

Ready to handle anything

They take the big one

They've got to be the best thing going

South Bay surfers really swing

Okay rock out

Oh Chicago can't you hear them

Hear that shore pound slam

It rumbles clear to New York City

Detroit back to old Miam

Philly back to Alabam

Little Deuce Coupe


Little deuce Coupe

You don't know what I got

Little deuce Coupe


Well I'm not bragging babe so don't put me down

But I've got the fastest set of wheels in town

When something comes up to me he don't even try

Cause if it had a set of wings man I know she could

fly

She's my little deuce coupe


Just a little deuce coupe with a flat head mill

But she'll walk a Thunderbird like she’s standing

still

She's ported and relieved and she's stroked and

bored.

She'll do a hundred and forty with the top end

floored



She's got a competition clutch with the four on the

floor

And she purrs like a kitten till the lake pipes roar

And if that ain’t enough to make you flip your lid

There's one more thing, I got the pink slip daddy

And coming off the line when the light turns green

Well she blows them out of the water like you

never seen

I get pushed out of shape and it's hard to steer

When I get rubber in all four gears







In My Room

(B. Wilson/Usher)

There's a world where I can go and tell my secrets

to

In my room, in my room

In this world I lock out all my worries and my

fears


Do my dreaming and my scheming

Lie awake and pray

Do my crying and my sighing

Laugh at yesterday

Now it's dark and I'm alone

But I won't be afraid

Hawaii

(B. Wilson/Love)

Do you wanna go

Straight to Hawaii

With their grass skirts down to their knees

All my life I wanted to see

The island called Hawaii

Go to Hawaii

Straight to Hawaii


Now I don't know what town you're from

But don't tell me that they got bigger waves

Cause everyone that goes

Comes back with nothing but raves

That's in Hawaii

And pretty soon this Winter

They'll hold the surfing championship of the year

Surfer guys and girls

Will be coming from far and near

Go to Hawaii

Hawaii

Straight to Hawaii


And you now

You’ll never ever want to leave.

Surfers Rule

(B. Wilson/Love)

It's a genuine fact that the Surfers rule

It's plastered on the walls all around the school

now

Becoming just as common as a golden rule now

Take it or leave it but you better believe it

Surfers rule

They burnt it in the grass on the football field now

Just try to make them cool it and they'll never

yield now

Take what you've heard now and go pass the word

now

Surfers rule

It's a genuine fact that the Surfers rule

A woody full of Surfers pulling alongside a wagon

The Hodaddies sitting while the Surfers are

dragging

The Surfers are winning and they say as they're

grinning

Our Car Club

(B. Wilson/Love)

I've been cruising round the town now with the

guys for quite a while

We been thinking 'bout starting up a club that

shows some class and style

And we'll get the finest cars

We got a Deuce Coupe, a Stingray, a rail job and an

XKE

We'll be the fastest at the drags, man, we'll really

cut some low ETs

And wipe out the other clubs

We'll set a meet, and get a sponsor, and collect

some dues

And you can bet that we'll have our jackets on

wherever we cruise

We'll get the roughest and the toughest initiation

we can find

And if you want to try to get in we'll really put you

through the grind

This club's the very best

We'll set a meet, and get a sponsor, and collect

some dues

And you can bet that we'll have our jackets on

wherever we cruise

We'll get the roughest and the toughest initiation

we can find

And if you want to try to get in we'll really send

you through the grind

This club's the very best

Start a club, a car club




Your Summer Dream

(B. Wilson/Norberg)

Drive your car down to the sea

All the while you build a scheme

Take her hand and walk on with her

Make it real your Summer dream

Smell the warm and salty air

See a wave reflect a beam

Stop and find a pretty shell for her

Make it real your summer dream

See another couple over there

To them an ordinary day

Soon you wonder the time has gone

The sun has almost slipped away

Now it's gone and you’re alone

In her eyes you see a gleam

Time has come for you to show your love

Make it real your Summer dream

Little Deuce Coupe (1963)

Ballad of Ole’ Betsy


Betsy, Betsy

She was born in '32, and was she ever pretty

She rode a freight train west, all the way from

Detroit city

Betsy's seen more places than I'll ever hope to see

Betsy's been more loyal than any friend could be

With some she travelled fast, with others it was

slow

Betsy's seen them all, she'd seen them come and

go

She must have had some others before I finally

met her

And now that she's all mine, they'd better just

forget her

Betsy was a lady and that she will remain

Betsy took some beatings but she never once

complained

She had a classic beauty that everyone could see

I was the last to meet her, but she gave her life to

me

She may be rusted iron, but to me she's solid gold

And I just can't hold the tears back

'Cause Betsy's growing old

Be True To Your School

(B. Wilson/Love)

When some loud braggart tries to put me down

And says his school is great

I tell him right away

"Now what's the matter buddy

Ain't you heard of my school

It's number one in the state"

So be true to your school now

Just like you would to your girl or guy

Be true to your school now

And let your colours fly

Be true to your school

I got a letterman's sweater

With a letter in front

I got for football and track

I'm proud to where it now

When I cruise around

The other parts of the town

I got a decal in back






On Friday we'll be jacked up on the football game

And I'll be ready to fight

We're going to smash them now

My girlfriend will be working on her pom-poms

now

And she'll be yelling tonight






Rah rah rah Be true to your school

Car Crazy Cutie


Run a-run a doo run run

hugs

Says she's like to take them better clean and gap

the plugs

Wo yeah

Wo oh oh oh

Oh oh oh my cutie


Cherry Cherry Coupe


Go cherry, cherry coupe now

The wildest short around is my cherry, cherry

coupe

It's the sharpest thing in town and the envy of my

group

It's one of its kind and it really looks good

Chopped nose and deck with louvers on the hood





Chrome reversed rims with whitewall slicks

And it turns a quarter mile in one oh six

Door handles are off but you know I'll never miss

them

They open when I want with the solenoid system





My coupe's tuck and roll underneath the hood

And the rugs, seats, and panels now are looking

good

When I go looking for something to do

She's got enough room now to barely seat two

woodies

In my no-go showboat (no-go showboat)

When it comes to speed, man, I'm just out of luck

I'm even shut down by the ice cream truck

'Cause it's a no-go showboat (no-go showboat)

No go

No go

No-go showboat

No-go showboat

A Young Man is Gone

(Troup/Love)

Now a young man's gone

But his legend lingers on

For so much had he to give

But his life is through

For the story told is true

For he died just as he lived.

For this daring young star

Met his death while in his car

No one knows the reason why

Screaming tire, flashing fire

And gone was this young star

Oh how could they let him die

Still a young man is gone

Yet his legend lingers on

For he died without a cause

And they say that he'll

Be known for evermore

As the Rebel Without A Cause

Custom Machine

(B. Wilson)

Check my custom machine

Well she's metal flake blue with a corvette mill

And they say it looks better when she's standing

still

When I step on the gas she goes wah

I'll let you look but don't touch my custom

machine

Well with naugahyde bucket seats in front and

back

Everything is chrome, man, even my jack



machine

With stereophonic speaker set with vibrasonic

sound

Magnesium spokes, it stands an inch off the

ground



machine

Shut Down Volume Two (1964)

Fun Fun Fun

(B. Wilson/Love)

Well she got her daddy's car

And she cruised through the hamburger stand

now

Seems she forgot all about the library

Like she told her old man now

And with the radio blasting

Goes cruising just as fast as she can now

And she'll have fun fun fun

'Til her daddy takes the T-Bird away

Well the girls can't stand her

'Cause she walks looks and drives like an ace now

She makes the Indy 500 look like a Roman chariot

race now

A lotta guys try to catch her

But she leads them on a wild goose chase now

And she'll have fun fun fun

'Til her daddy takes the T-Bird away

Well you knew all along

That your dad was getting wise to you now

And since he took your set of keys

You've been thinking that your fun is all through

now

But you can come along with me

'Cause we got to a lot of things to do now

And we'll have fun fun fun now that daddy took

the T-Bird away

And we'll have fun fun fun now that daddy took

the T-Bird away

Don’t Worry Baby


Well it’s been building up inside of me

For oh I don't know how long

I don't know why

But I keep thinking

Something's bound to go wrong

But she looks in my eyes

And makes me realize

And she says "Don't worry baby"

Don't worry baby

Don't worry baby

Everything will turn out alright

Don't worry baby

Don't worry baby

Don't worry baby

I guess I should've kept my mouth shut

When I started to brag about my car

But I can't back down now because

I pushed the other guys too far

She makes me come alive

And makes me want to drive

When she says "Don't worry baby"

Don't worry baby

Don't worry baby


Don't worry baby

Don't worry baby

Don't worry baby

She told me "Baby, when you race today

Just take along my love with you

And if you knew how much I loved you

Baby nothing could go wrong with you"

Oh what she does to me

When she makes love to me

And she says "Don't worry baby"

Don't worry baby

Don't worry baby


Don't worry baby

Don't worry baby

Don't worry baby

In The Parkin’ Lot


We're always first to hit the lot

And wave to the man in blue now

It's still so early in the morning

The grass is all covered with dew now

She's turning on the radio dial

We can sit a listen for awhile

She looks so great in the morning

She doesn't even have to try now

It's not my metal flake paint that

The guys are digging when they pass by now

Outside it could storm

But we'll still keep warm

All the kids are splitting to their lockers

But we're still making out in the car now

Just one long kiss and we'll be gone

Cause two minutes all there are now

Here comes the news

There's no time to lose

Warmth of the Sun

(B. Wilson/Love)

What good is the dawn

That grows into day

The sunset at night

Or living this way

For I have the warmth of the sun

Within me at night

The love of my life

She left me one day

I cried when she said

"I don't feel the same way"

Still I have the warmth of the sun

Within me tonight

I'll dreams of her arms

And though they're not real

Just like she's still there

The way that I feel

My love's like the warmth of the sun

It won't ever die

175

The Car of Mine

(B. Wilson/Love)

This car of mine

When I bought her now she wasn't new

Old and broke down

This car of mine

There's been a lot of races we been through

No slow poke now

I never want to part with her you see

This little car means a heck of a lot to me

I remember the day

When I chose her over all those old broken

junkers

Thought I could tell

Underneath a coat of rust she was gold

No clunker

Just couldn't wait to take her home with me

And fix her up just as new as she could be

Ain't no amount of gold any mine

Would be enough to take away this car of mine

This car of mine

Oh his car of mine

She's so fine now

Why Do Fools Fall In Love?

(Lymon)

Ooh wah ooh wah ooh wah

Why do fools fall in love

Why do birds sing so gay

Love is awake at the break of day

Why do they fall in love

Why does the rain fall from up above



Why does my heart skip with a crazy beat

'Fore I know it will face defeat

Tell me why why



Why do birds sing so gay

Love is awake at the break of day


Why does the rain fall from up above



Tell me why why


Tell me why why

Pom Pom Play Girl

(B. Wilson/Love)

Rah rah pom pom play girl

Pom pom play girl

You see her in a short skirt down on the grass

She's wondering if the team's going to run kick or

pass

Since she doesn't really know why she's waving

her hands

She's thinking about the boy sitting up in the

stands


Pom pom play girl

Just a little social clique with the other song

queens

With a freshman or a sophomore she wouldn't be

seen

She's a doll and she knows it and she thinks that

her face

Will get her anybody anything and any place


Pom pom play girl

Since she's the head cheerleader she dates the

quarterback

And her best friend's going out with the full back

She might even run for an office this Spring

And that ought to really make her telephone ring


Pom pom play girl

Keep an Eye on Summer

(B. Wilson/Norberg/Love)

Keep an eye on Summer this year

Keep an eye on Summer

Keep an eye on

We said goodbye last September

Your words I still can hear


Those things I say in my letters

You'll find them most sincere


Soon we'll be graduating

And we'll be so far apart

And though you could be dating

I'm waiting and waiting

And as we look at the future

Though it be through a tear

Keep an eye on Summer this

This year

keep an eye

This year

keep an eye

This year

keep an eye

177

All Summer Long (1964)

I Get Around

(B. Wilson/Love)

Round round get around

I get around

I get around

From town to town

I'm a real cool head

I'm making real good bread

I'm getting bugged driving up and down this same

old strip

I’ve got to find a new place where the kids are hip

My buddies and me are getting real well known

Yeah, the bad guys know us and they leave us

alone

I get around

From town to town


I'm making real good bread We always take my

car cause it's never been beat

And we've never missed yet with the girls we meet

None of the guys go steady cause it wouldn't be

right

To leave their best girl home now on Saturday

night

I get around

From town to town


I'm making real good bread I get around

Round

Round round get around

I get around

Yeah

Get around round round I get around



All Summer Long

(B. Wilson/Love)

Sittin' in my car outside your house

'Member when you spilled coke all over you

blouse

T-shirts, cut-offs, and a pair of thongs

We've been having fun all summer long

I can't see enough of you

Won't be long til summer time is through

Not for us now

Miniature golf and Hondas in the hills

When we rode the horse we got some thrills



Won't be long til summer time is through

Not for us now






178

Hushabye

(Pomus/Shuman)

Hush hush

Hushabye

Hushabye

Hushabye

Oh my darlin' don't you cry

Guardian angels up above

Take care of the one I love

Hush hush

Hushabye

Lullabye and goodnight

In your dreams I hold you tight

Lullabye and goodnight

Til the dawn's early light

Pillows lying on your bed

Oh my darling rest your head

Sandman will be coming soon

Singing you a slumber tune

Hush

Hush

Hushabye

Little Honda

(B. Wilson/Love)

Go!

I'm going to wake you up early

Cause I'm going to take a ride with you

We're going down to the Honda shop

I'll tell you what we're going to do

Put on a ragged sweatshirt

I'll take you anywhere you want me to

First gear it's alright

Second gear I lean right

Third gear hang on tight

Faster it's alright

It's not a big motorcycle

Just a groovy little motorbike

It's more fun that a barrel of monkeys

That two wheel bike

We'll ride on out of the town

To any place I know you like




Faster it's alright

It climbs the hills like a matchless

Cause my Honda's built really light

When I go into the turns

Lean with me and hang on tight

I better turn on the lights

So we can ride my Honda tonight




Faster it's alright




Faster it's alright

179

We’ll Run Away

(B. Wilson/Usher)

We know they're right when they say we're not

ready

But all we care is how we feel right now

We'll go ahead just the same

Prepare to take the blame

We'll run away and get married anyhow

They warned us that we can't live on love forever

But we just tell them we'll get by somehow

Our problems will be greater

We'll worry 'bout them later

We'll run away and get married anyhow

If other kids went through it

Then I know we can do it

If our love is that much stronger

It will last that much longer

It wasn't too long ago when our folks were

Were going through the same thing we are now

But one thing they're forgetting

A thing they're not regretting

They ran away and got married anyhow

Anyhow

They ran away and got married anyhow

Wendy

(B. Wilson/Love)

Wendy, Wendy what went wrong

Oh so wrong

We went together for so long

I never thought a guy could cry

'Til you made it with another guy

Oh Wendy, Wendy left me alone

Hurt so bad

Wendy, Wendy don't lose your head

Lose your head

Wendy don't believe a word he says

I can't picture you with him

His future looks awful dim

Oh Wendy, Wendy left me alone

Hurt so bad

Wendy I wouldn't hurt you like that

No no no

I thought we had our love down pat

Guess I was wrong

The farthest thing from my mind

Was the day that I'd wake up to find

My Wendy

Wendy left me alone

Wendy, Wendy left me alone

Hurts so bad


Hurts so bad


Hurts so bad

Wendy, Wendy.

180

Do You Remember?

(B. Wilson/Love)

Little Richard sang it and Dick Clark brought it to

life

Danny and the Juniors hit a groove, stuck as sharp

as a knife

Well now do you remember all the guys that gave

us rock and roll

Chuck Berry's got to be the greatest thing that’s

come along

He made the guitar beats and wrote the all-time

greatest song


us rock and roll

Elvis Presley is the king

He's the giant of the day

Paved the way for the rock and roll stars

Yeah the critics kept a knocking

But the stars kept a rocking

And the chopping didn't get very far

Goodness gracious great balls of fire!

Nothing’s really moving till the saxophone's ready

to blow

And the beat's not jumping till the drummer says

he's ready to go


us rock and roll

Let's hear the high voice wail

And hear the voice down low

Let's hear the background

They gave us rock and roll



Girls on the Beach

(B. Wilson)

The girls on the beach

On the beach you'll find them there

In the sun and salty air


Are all within reach

If you know what to do

How we love to lie around

Girls with tans of golden brown



And one waits there for you

The sun in her hair

The warmth of the air

On a summer day

As the sun dips out of sight

Couples on the beach at night



And with the boys tonight

Girls on the beach, girls on the beach

Girls on the beach, girls on the beach

181

Drive-In

(B. Wilson/Love)

Every time I have a date there's only one place to

go

That's to the drive in

It's such a groovy place to talk and maybe watch a

show

Down at the drive in

Forget about the plot, it'll do very well

But make sure you see enough so you're prepared

to tell

About the drive in

I love the drive in

If the windows get fogged you'll have to take a

breath


Or the cat dressed in white will scare you both to

death


A big buttered popcorn and an extra-large coke

A few chilli dogs and man I'm going broke


Yeah at the drive in

Don't sneak your buddies in the trunk 'cause they

might get caught

By the drive in

And they'd look kind of stupid getting chased

through the lot

Around the drive in

If you say you watch the movie you're a couple o'

liars

And "Remember only you can prevent forest fires"


I love the drive in


I love the drive in

Don’t Back Down

(B. Wilson/Love)

The girls dig the way the guys get all wiped out

With their feet in the air you can hear them shout

They're not afraid

Not my boys

They grit their teeth, they don't back down

Don't back down

You got to be a little nuts

Don't back down

But show them now who's got guts

Don't back down

Don't back down from that wave

With their feet full of tar and their hair full of sand

The boys know the beach like the palm of their

hand

They're not afraid

Not my boys


Don't back down


Don't back down


Don't back down


When a twenty-footer sneaks up like a ton of lead

And the crest comes along and slaps them upside

the head

They're not afraid

Not my boys


Don't back down


Don't back down


Don't back down


182

Today! (1965)

Do You Wanna Dance?

(Freeman)

Do you wanna dance and hold my hand

Tell me baby I'm your lover man

Oh baby do you wanna dance?

Do you wanna dance under the moonlight

Hold me baby all through the night

Good to My Baby

(B. Wilson/Love)

They think I'm bad and I treat her so mean

But all they know is from what they've seen

And when I get her alone now

You know we're happy as a couple could be

And when I give her my love it's between her and

me

She's my girl and I'm good to my baby


And I know she's happy with me

Some guys may think they'd be better for her

But she knows just what she wants for sure

And when we're out with our friends now

You know that we never have to put on a show

And we stay together while other couples come

and go



And I know she's happy with me





183

Don’t Hurt My Little Sister

(B. Wilson/Love)

There she goes she ran in her room

She'll probably stay in there the rest of the day

It sounds like it must have been something you

said

You know she's awful used to getting her way

Why don't you kiss her

And while you kiss her

Why don't you treat her

Treat her nice




You know she digs you and thinks you're a real

groovy guy

But yet I'm not sure that I feel the same

We both know that you've been making her cry

I hope you don't think it's some kind of game

Why don't you love her

Like her big brother

Why don't you tell her

Tell her you're sorry




When I Grow Up (to be a man)

(B. Wilson/Love)


Will I dig the same things that turn me on as a kid?

Will I look back and say that I wish I hadn't done

what I did?

Will I joke around and still dig those sounds

When I grow up to be a man?

Will I look for the same things in a woman that I

dig in a girl?

Will I settle down fast or will I first want to travel

the world?

Now I'm young and free, but how will it be


Will my kids be proud or think their old man is

really a square?

When they're out having fun yeah, will I still want

to have my share?

Will I love my wife for the rest of my life


What will I be when I grow up to be a man?

Won't last forever

It's kind of sad

Won't last forever

It's kind of sad

Won't last forever

184

Help Me Ronda

(B. Wilson/Love)

Well since she put me down I 've been out doing in

my head

Come in late at night and in the morning I just lay

in bed

Well, Ronda you look so fine

For you to help me Ronda

But she let another guy come between us

And it ruined our plan

Well, Ronda you caught my eye

And I can give you lots of reasons why

You got to help me Ronda


Help me Ronda

Help, help me Ronda

Help me Ronda

Dance Dance Dance

(B. Wilson/C. Wilson/Love)

After six hours of school I've had enough for the

day

I hit the radio dial and turn it up all the way

I gotta dance right on the spot

The beat's really hot

Dance dance dance yeah!

When I feel put down I try to shake it off quick

With my chick by my side the radio does the trick




At a weekend dance we like to show up last

I play it cool when it's slow and jump it when it's

fast




185

Please Let Me Wonder

(B. Wilson/Love)

Now here we are together

This would've been worth waiting forever

I always knew it'd feel this way

And please forgive my shaking

Can't you tell my heart is breaking?

Can't make myself say what I planned to say

Baby

Please let me wonder

If I've been the one you love


If I'm who you're dreaming of

Please let me wonder, love

I built all my goals around you

That someday my love would surround you

You'll never know what we've been through

For so long I thought about it

And now I just can't live without it

This beautiful image I have of you

Baby











I love you

I’m So Young

(Tyrus)

I have a girlfriend

She says I'm her only one

We want to get married

But we're so young

So young

Can't marry no one

They say our love is

Just a teenage affection

But no one knows

Our hearts' direction

So young

Can't marry no one

I'm I'm I'm so young



Can't marry no one, no one

Pretty soon now

I'll go to sea

Their mother's baby

Will have seen the last of me

So young

Can't marry no one, no one

Can't marry no one

Can't marry no one

Can't marry no one

186

Kiss Me Baby

(B. Wilson/Love)

Please don't let me argue anymore

I won't make you worry like before

Can't remember what we fought about

Late late last night we said it was over

But I remember when we thought it out

We both had a broken heart

Kiss me Baby

Love to hold you

Kiss me baby

Love to hold you

As I drove away I felt a tear

It hit me I was losing someone dear

Told my folks I would be alright

Tossed and I turned, my head was so heavy

Then I wondered as it got light

Were you still awake like me?

Kiss me Baby

Love to hold you

Kiss me baby

Love to hold you

Tight

Kiss me Baby

Love to hold you

Kiss me baby

Love to hold you

Kiss me Baby

Love to hold you

Kiss me baby

Love to hold you

She Knows Me Too Well

(B. Wilson/Love)

She knows me

She knows me

Sometimes I have a weird way of showing my love

And I always expect her to know what I'm

thinking of

She knows me

I treat her so mean I don't deserve what I have

And I think that she'll forgive just by making her

laugh

But she knows me

She knows me too well

Knows me so well

That she can tell

I really love her


I get so jealous of the other guy

And then I'm not happy til I make her break down

and cry

When I look at other girls it must kill her inside

But it'd be another story if she looked at the guys

But she knows me


Knows me so well

That she can tell

I really love her


She knows me

She knows me

When I look at other girls it must kill her inside

But it'd be another story if she looked at the guys

Cause she knows me

Knows me so well

That she can tell

I really love her


187

In The Back of My Mind

(B. Wilson/Love)

I'm blessed with everything

A world to which a man can cling

So happy times when I break out in tears

In the back of my mind I still have my fears

I live my life with her

Love her true she knows I'm sure

I make her happy just living so plain

In the back of my mind I'm afraid it's going to

change

I tried to run far away from thoughts

I should try to keep away

But they just keep coming back to me

I tried to rationalize

But someday I might realize

That things are just good the way they'll be

I know it's so hard to find

A girl who really understands your mind

What will I do if I leave her

It will always be way in the back of my mind

188

Summer Days (and Summer

Nights!!) (1965)

The Girl From New York City

(B. Wilson/Love)

She came out with her best friend for the summer

in L. A.

They took a small apartment down on the beach

And you'll find them there every day

And I said

California guys all can't peel their eyes

From that girl from New York City

And L. A. boys all heard the noise

About that girl from New York City

We'll turn them on with all the things that will be

happening night and day

We'll show them such a groovy time that they'll

both be deciding to stay

And let me say













Amusement Parks USA

(B. Wilson/ Love)

Let's take your car and to amusement parks USA

At Palisades in Salisbury Parks the rolly coasters

are flying

At Euclid Beach on the flying turns I'll bet you

can't keep from smiling

Buy your girl a cotton candy while you're down on

the ground

Then take her on the twirl-a-way and spin her

around

Let's take your car and mess around at the park all

day

The parachutes at Riverview Park will shake us up

all day

And Disneyland and P.O.P. is worth a trip to L.A.

Watching girls in the air can really get you bad

And I'll bet the laughing lady makes you laugh like

mad

Let's pick up our friends and do amusement parks

USA

You'll crash and burn in the bumper cars at

Jersey's steel pier

You'll crack them up when you stand in front of all

the crazy mirrors

At first you'll be a chicken at the jackhammer ride

But you'll do it with a girl sitting right by your side

Let's take your car and mess around at the park all

day

189

Then I Kissed Her

(Spector/Greenwich/Barry)

Well I walked up to her and I asked her if she

wanted to dance

She looked awful nice and so I hoped she might

take a chance

When we danced I held her tight

Then I walked her home that night

And all the stars were shining bright

And then I kissed her

Each time I saw her I couldn't wait to see her again

I wanted to let her know that I was more than a

friend

I didn't know just what to do

And so I whispered I love you

And she said that she loved me too


I kissed her in a way that I'd never kissed a girl

before

I kissed her in a way that I hope she liked for

evermore

I knew that she was mine so I gave her all the love

that I had

Then one day she'll take me home to meet her

mom and her dad

Then I asked her to be my bride

And always be right by my side

I felt so happy that I almost cried




Salt Lake City

(B. Wilson/Love)

Down in Utah

The guys and I dig a city called Salt Lake

(B. Wilson)

Hi little girl, it's me

Don't you know who I am?

I met you last summer when

When I came up to stay with my grand

I'm the guy who

Left you with tears in his eyes

You didn't answer my letters

So I figured it was just lie

Your hair's getting longer and your shorts

Mmm they sure fit you fine

I'll bet you went out

Every night during ol' school time

But this time I'm not going to count on you

I'll see you this summer

And forget you when I go back to school

Girl Don't tell me you'll write

Girl don't tell me you'll write

California Girls

(B. Wilson/Love)

Well East coast girls are hip

I really dig those styles they wear

And the Southern girls with the way they talk

They knock me out when I'm down there

The Midwest farmer's daughters

Really make you feel alright

And the Northern girls with the way they kiss

They keep their boyfriends warm at night

I wish they all could be California



The West coast has the sunshine

And the girls all get so tanned

I dig a French bikini on Hawaii island dolls

By a palm tree in the sand

I been all around this great big world

And I seen all kinds of girls

Yeah, but I couldn't wait to get back in the states

Back to the cutest girls in the world





(Girls, girls, girls yeah I dig the)







Let Him Run Wild

(B. Wilson/Love)

When I watched you walk with him

Tears filled my eyes

And when I heard you talk with him

I couldn't stand his lies

And now before he tries it

I hope you realize it

Let him run wild

He don't care

Let him run wild

He'll find out

Let him run wild

He don't care

(Guess you know I waited for you)

He'll do the same to other girls

That he did to you

But then one day he'll run in to one

That's gonna hurt him too

Before he makes you over

I'm gonna take you over

Let him run wild

He don't care

Let him run wild

He'll find out

Let him run wild

He don't care

(Guess you know I waited for you girl)

All the dreams you shared with him

You might as well forget

I know you need a truer love

And that's what you'll get

And now that you don't need him

Well he can have his freedom

Let him run wild

He don't care

Let him run wild

He'll find out

Let him run wild

He don't care

Let him run wild

He'll find out

You’re So Good to Me

(B. Wilson/Love)

You're kind of small

And you're such a doll

I'm glad you're mine

You're so good to me

How come you are

You take my hand

And you understand

When I get in a bad mood


And I love it, love it

You're my baby

Oh yeah

Don't mean maybe

Oh yeah

I know your eyes

Are not on the guys

When we're apart

You're so true to me

How come you are

And every night

You hold me so tight

When I kiss you goodbye


And I love it, love it

You're my baby

Oh yeah

Don't mean maybe

Oh yeah

You're my baby

Oh yeah

Don't mean maybe

Oh yeah

You're my baby

Oh yeah

Don't mean maybe

Oh yeah

You're my baby

I’m Bugged at My Old Man

(B. Wilson)

I'm bugged at my ol' man

Cause he's making me stay in my room

I came in a little late

And my ol' man he just blew his mind

Why did he sell my surfboard?

He cut off my hair last night in my sleep

I wish I could see outside

But he tacked up boards on my window

I can't hit the surf, can't drag

Can't do a dog-goned thing

I tried to call up my chick

But he jerked my phone right out of the wall

They gave me some breadcrumbs

And a little glass of water

And they're out there eating steak

I ripped up my wardrobe

And I'm growing a beard

Oh when will they let me come out

I'd listen to my radio

But he took it and he's using it in his own room

I wish I could do some homework

But I got suspended from school

I'm bugged at my ol' man

And he doesn't even know where it's at

193

And Your Dream Comes True

(B. Wilson/Love)

You're so sleepy

Wish that he could stay

Love him so

But now it's getting late

He'll be waiting

Waiting just for you

One more summer

And your dream comes true

194

Pet Sounds (1966)

Wouldn’t It Be Nice

(B. Wilson/Asher/Love)

Wouldn't it be nice if we were older

Then we wouldn't have to wait so long

And wouldn't it be nice to live together

In the kind of world where we belong

You know it’s going to make it that much better

When we can say goodnight and stay together

Wouldn't it be nice if we could wake up

In the morning when the day is new

And after having spent the day together

Hold each other close the whole night through

Happy times together we've been spending

I wish that every kiss was never ending

Wouldn't it be nice

Maybe if we think and wish and hope and pray it

might come true

Baby then there wouldn't be a single thing we

couldn't do

We could be married

And then we'd be happy

Wouldn't it be nice

You know it seems the more we talk about it

It only makes it worse to live without it

But let’s talk about it

Wouldn't it be nice

Good night my baby

Sleep tight my baby

You Still Believe in Me

(B. Wilson/Asher)

I know perfectly well

I'm not where I should be

I've been very aware

You've been patient with me

Every time we break up

You bring back your love to me

And after all I've done to you

How can it be

You still believe in me

I try hard to be more

What you want me to be

But I can't help how I act

When you're not here with me

I try hard to be strong

But sometimes I fail myself

And after all I've promised you

So faithfully

You still believe in me

I wanna cry

195

That’s Not Me

(B. Wilson/Asher)

I had to prove that I could make it alone

But that's not me

I wanted to show how independent I'd grown now

But that's not me

I could try to be big in the eyes of the world

What matters to me is what I could be to just one

girl

I'm a little bit scared

Cause I haven't been home in a long time

You needed my love

And I know that I left at the wrong time

My folks when I wrote them

Told them what I was up to said that's not me

I went through all kinds of changes

Took a look at myself and said that's not me

I miss my pad and the places I've known

And every night as I lay there alone I will dream

I once had a dream

So I packed up and split for the city

I soon found out that my lonely life wasn't so

pretty

I'm glad I went now I'm that much more sure that

we're ready

I once had a dream



pretty

I once had a dream



pretty

Don’t Talk (Put Your Head on My Shoulder)

(B. Wilson/Asher)

I can hear so much in your sighs

And I can see so much in your eyes

There are words we both could say

But don't talk, put your head on my shoulder

Come close, close your eyes and be still

Don't talk, take my hand and let me hear your

heart beat

Being here with you feels so right

We could live forever tonight

Lets not think about tomorrow

And don't talk put your head on my shoulder

Come close, close your eyes and be still

Don't talk, take my hand and listen to my heart

beat

Listen, listen, listen.

Don't talk, put your head on my shoulder

Don't talk, close your eyes and be still


Don't talk, close your eyes and be still


196

I’m Waiting For the Day

(B. Wilson/Love)

I came along when he broke your heart

That's when you needed someone

To help forget about him

I gave you love with a brand new start

That's what you needed the most

To set your broken heart free

I know you cried, and you felt blue

But when I could I gave strength to you

I'm waiting for the day when you can love again

I kissed your lips

And when your face looked sad

It made me think about him

And that you still loved him so

But you know that pretty soon

I made you feel glad

That you belonged to me

And love began to show

He hurt you then, but that's all gone

I guess I'm saying you're the only one


He hurt you then, but that's all done

I guess I'm saying you're the only one


You didn't think that I could sit around and let him

work

You didn't think that I could sit around and watch

him take you

You didn't think that I could sit around and let him

go

You didn't think that I could sit back and let you go

You didn't think .

Sloop John B

(Trad. Arr. B. Wilson)

We come on the sloop John B

My grandfather and me

Around Nassau town we did roam

Drinking all night

Got into a fight

Well I feel so broke up

I want to go home

So hoist up the John B's sail

See how the mainsail sets

Call for the Captain ashore

Let me go home, let me go home

I want to go home, yeah yeah

Well I feel so broke up

I want to go home

The first mate he got drunk

And broke in the Captain’s trunk

The constable had to come and take him away

Sheriff John Stone

Why don't you leave me alone, yeah yeah

Well I feel so broke up I want to go home





I want to go home, let me go home

Why don't you let me go home

Hoist up the John B

I feel so broke up I want go home

Let me go home

The poor cook he caught the fits

And threw away all my grits

And then he took and he ate up all of my corn

Let me go home

Why don't they let me go home

This is the worst trip I've ever been on





I want to go home, let me go home

Why don't you let me go home

197

God Only Knows

(B. Wilson/Asher)

I may not always love you

But long as there are stars above you

You never need to doubt it

I'll make you so sure about it

God only knows what I'd be without you

If you should ever leave me

Though life would still go on believe me

The world could show nothing to me

So what good would living do me



If you should ever leave me

Well life would still go on believe me

The world could show nothing to me

So what good would living do me



God only knows



God only knows

I Know There’s an Answer

(B. Wilson/Asher)/Sachen/Love)

I know so many people who think they can do it

alone

They isolate their heads and stay in their safety

zones

Now what can you tell them

And what can you say that won't make them

defensive

I know there's an answer

I know now but I have to find it by myself

They come on like they're peaceful

But inside they're so uptight

They trip through their day

And waste all their thoughts at night

Now how can I come on

And tell them the way that they live could be

better



Now how can I come on

And tell them the way that they live could be

better



198

Here Today

(B. Wilson/Asher)

It starts with just a little glance now

Right away you're thinking about romance now

You know you ought to take it slower

But you just can't wait to get to know her

A brand new love affair is such a beautiful thing

But if you're not careful think about the pain it can

bring

It makes you feel so bad

It makes your heart feel sad

It makes your days go wrong

It makes your nights so long

You've got to keep in mind love is here today

And it's gone tomorrow

It's here and gone so fast

Right now you think that she's perfection

This time is really an exception

Well you know I hate to be a downer

But I'm the guy she left before you found her

Well I'm not saying you won't have a good love

with her

But I keep on remembering things like they were

She made me feel so bad

She made my heart feel sad

She made my days go wrong

And made my nights so long

You've got to keep in mind love is here today



Keep in mind love is here today



Love is here today



I Just Wasn’t Made For These Times

(B. Wilson/Asher)

I keep looking for a place to fit

Where I can speak my mind

I've been trying hard to find the people

That I won't leave behind

They say I got brains

But they ain't doing me no good

I wish they could

Each time things start to happen again

I think I got something good going for myself

But what goes wrong

Sometimes I feel very sad


(Can't find nothing I can put my heart and soul

into)



into)


Every time I get the inspiration

To go change things around

No one wants to help me look for places

Where new things might be found

Where can I turn when my fair weather friends

cop out

What's it all about

Each time things start to happen again

I think I got something good going for myself

But what goes wrong




into)



into)





199

Caroline No

(B. Wilson/Asher)

Where did your long hair go?

Where is the girl I used to know?

How could you lose that happy glow?

Oh, Caroline no

Who took that look away?

I remember how you used to say

You'd never change, but that's not true

Oh, Caroline you

Break my heart

I want to go and cry

It's so sad to watch a sweet thing die

Oh, Caroline why

Could I ever find in you again

The things that made me love you so much then?

Could we ever bring them back once they have

gone?

Oh, Caroline no
