If everybody had an ocean
Across the U. S. A.
Then everybody'd be surfin'
Like Californi-a
You'd see 'em wearing their baggies
Huarachi sandals too
A bushy bushy blonde hairdo
Surfin' U. S. A.

You'd catch 'em surfin' at Del Mar
Ventura County line
Santa Cruz and Trestle
Australia's Narrabeen
All over Manhattan
And down Doheny Way

Everybody's gone surfin'
Surfin' U.S.A.

We'll all be planning that route
We're gonna take real soon
We're waxing down our surfboards
We can't wait for June
We'll all be gone for the summer
We're on surfari to stay
Tell the teacher we're surfin'
Surfin' U. S. A.

Haggerties and Swamies
Pacific Palisades
San Onofre and Sunset
Redondo Beach L. A.
All over La Jolla
At Wa'imea Bay.

Everybody's gone surfin'
Surfin' U.S. A.

Everybody's gone surfin'
Surfin' U.S. A.

Everybody's gone surfin'
Surfin' U.S. A.

. . .


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 gotta catch a wave and you're sittin' 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 'em they'll hit the road and all be surfin' soon
And when they catch a wave they'll be sittin' on top of the world

Catch a wave and your sittin' 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 sittin on top of the world

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

Little surfer, little one
Made my heart come all undone.
Do you love me?
Do you surfer girl?
My little surfer girl.

I have watched you on the shore
Standing by the ocean's roar.
Do you love me?
Do you surfer girl?

We could ride the surf together
While our love would grow.
In my woody, I would take you
Everywhere I go.

So I say from me to you
I will make your dreams come true.
Do you love me?
Do you surfer girl?
My little surfer girl.
Little one.
Little one.

Little deuce coupe
You don't know what I got

Well I'm not braggin' 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 I had a set of wings man I know she could fly
She's my little deuce coupe you don't know what I got

Just a little deuce coupe with a flat head mill
But she'll walk a thunderbird Like she's standin' 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 my little deuce coupe you don't know what I got

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 nough 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 'em outta 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
She's my little deuce coupe you don't know what I got
She's my little deuce coupe you don't know what I got

. . .


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
In my room.
In my room.

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
In my room.
In my room.

I'm gonna wake you up early cause I'm gonna take a ride with you
We're going down to the Honda shop, I'll tell you what we're gonna do
Put on a ragged sweatshirt it’ll take you anywhere you want me to

First gear, it's all right
Second gear, it’ll be right
Third gear, hang on tight
Faster, it's all right

It's not a big motorcycle, just a groovy little motorbike
It's more fun than a barrel of monkeys, that two-wheel ride
We’ll ride on out of the town to anyplace I know you like

It climbs a hill like a match of skills my Honda's built really light
When I go into the turn, lean with me, and hang on tight
I better turn on the lights, so we can ride my Honda the night

. . .


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 blastin'
Goes cruisin' 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 the Roman Chariot Race, now.
A lot of guys try to catch her,
But she leads 'em 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 gettin' wise to you, now
And since he took your set of keys,
You've been thinkin' that your fun is all through, now,
But you can come along with me
'Cause we've got 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.

. . .


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
(Warmth of the sun)
Within me at night
(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
(Warmth of the sun)
Within me tonight
(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
(Warmth of the sun)
It won't ever die
(It won't ever die)

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

(Woah baby) Kiss me baby
(Woah baby) Love to hold you
(Woah baby) kiss me baby
(Woah 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?

(Woah baby) Kiss me baby
(Woah baby) Love to hold you
(Woah baby) kiss me baby
(Woah baby) Love to hold you

Tight

(Woah baby) Kiss me baby
(Woah baby) Love to hold you
(Woah baby) kiss me baby
(Woah baby) Love to hold you
(Woah baby) Kiss me baby
(Woah baby) Love to hold you

. . .


You're kinda small
And your 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
You're so good to me
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 'ther 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
You're so good to me
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

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.

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.

(SOLO)

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.

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 mid-west 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 girls
Wish they all could be Californian
I wish they all could be California girls

The west coast
Has the sunshine
And the girls all
Get so tanned.
I dig a french bikini
On the wild island girls
By a palm tree in the sand.
I've been all around this
Great big world
And I seen all kind of girls,
Yeah, but I couldn't wait
To get back in the states.
Back to the cutest girls
In the world.

I wish they all could be California girls
Wish they all could be Californian
I wish they all could be California girls

I wish they all could be California girls
Wish they all could be Californian
I wish they all could be California girls
Wish they all could be Californian
I wish they all could be California girls

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 wanna 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 wanna go home, yeah, yeah
Well I feel so broke up
I wanna go home

Well. first mate, he got drunk
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 wanna go home

So hoist up the John B's sails
See how the mainsail sets
Call for the captain ashore
Let me go home, let me go home
I wanna 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 wanna 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

So hoist up the John B's sails
See how the mainsail sets
Call for the captain ashore
Let me go home, let me go home
I wanna go home, let me go home
Why don't you let me go home

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

God only knows what I'd be without you

God only knows what I'd be without you

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 what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
