Stars And Stripes Vol. 1

The Beach Boys Stars And Stripes Vol. 1 Lyrics
1.I Can Hear Music*

Ahhhhhh oooooo

This is the way
I always dreamed it would be
The way that it is, oh oh
When you are holding me
I never had a love of my own
Maybe that's why when we're all alone

I can hear music
I can hear music
The sound of the city baby seems to disappear
I can hear music
Sweet sweet music
Whenever you touch me baby
Whenever you're near

Lovin' you
It keeps me satisfied
And I can't explain, oh no
The way I'm feeling inside
You look at me we kiss and then
I close my eyes and here it comes again

I can hear music
I can hear music
The sound of the city baby seems to disappear
I can hear music
Sweet sweet music
Whenever you touch me baby
Whenever you're near

I hear the music all the time, yeah
I hear the music, hold me tight now baby
I hear the music all the time
I hear the music
I hear the music (baby)

Ahhhhh

I can hear music
I can hear music
The sound of the city baby seems to disappear
I can hear music
Sweet sweet music
Whenever you touch me baby
Whenever you're near


2.I Get Around**

Round round get around
I get around
Yeah
Get around round round I get around

Get around round round I get around
From town to town
Get around round round I get around
I'm a real cool head
Get around round round I get around
I'm makin' real good bread

I'm gettin' bugged driving up and down the same old strip
I gotta 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
Get around round round I get around
From town to town
Get around round round I get around

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
Get around round round I get around
From town to town
Get around round round I get around
I'm a real cool head
Get around round round I get around
I'm makin' real good bread
Get around round round I get around

4.Caroline, No*

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
Things that made me love you so much then
Could we ever bring 'em back once they have gone
Oh, caroline no


5.The Warmth Of The Sun*

There's a lot of things I want, a lot of things that I'd like to
be
But girl I don't foresee a rags to riches story for me
I've given up on schemes cause every one fell through
I've given up so many things, don't ask me to give up on you
And baby baby

Just once in my life let me get what I want
Girl don't let me down
Just once in my life let me hold onto
A good thing I found
Don't let me down
Baby say that you'll be staying

I couldn't face the day if you weren't here by my side
And if you went away then I'd be left without any pride
There's just one little dream I've got to make come true
There's just one round I've got to win
I can't be a loser with you
And baby baby

Just once in my life let me get what I want
Girl don't let me down
Just once in my life let me hold onto
A good thing I found
Don't let me down
Baby say that you'll be staying

Every pot of gold ain't so easy to find
And if you'll stand by me
Girl I'll give you some of mine
I can't give you the world
But I'll work hard for you girl
Well I'll work hard
Every day baby don't leave me
Now say you won't leave me
Do this for me baby

Once in my life let me get what I want
Girl don't let me down
Just once in my life let me hold onto
A good thing I found
Don't let me down
Baby say that


6.Sloop John B*

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

The first mate he got drunk
And broke in the Cap'n'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 sail
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's sail)
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 sail
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

8.Fun, Fun, Fun*

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
(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
(you walk like an ace now you walk like an ace)
She makes the indy 500 look like a roman chariot race now
(you look like an ace now you look like an ace)
A lotta guys try to catch her
But she leads them on a wild goose chase now
(you drive like an ace now you drive like an ace)

And she'll have fun fun fun
'til her daddy takes the t-bird away
(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
(you shouldn't have lied now you shouldn't have lied)
And since he took your set of keys
You've been thinking that your fun is all through now
(you shouldn't have lied now you shouldn't have lied)

But you can come along with me
'cause we gotta a lot of things to do now
(you shouldn't have lied now you shouldn't have lied)

And we'll have fun fun fun now that daddy took the t-bird away

9.Be True To Your School*

Lyricist:Mike Love, Brian Wilson

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 colors 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

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 colors fly
Be true to your school

On Friday we'll be jacked
Up on the football game
And I'll be ready to fight
We're gonna smash 'em now
My girl will be working
On her pom-poms now
And she'll be yelling tonight

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 colors fly
Be true to your school

Rah rah rah be true to your school
Rah rah rah be true to your school
Rah rah rah be true to your school
Rah rah rah be true to your school


10.Don't Worry Baby*

Lyricist:Roger Val Christian, Brian Wilson

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 thinkin' somethin'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 start to bring
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 wanna drive
When 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

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 nothin' 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

Everything will turn out alright
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


11.Little Deuce Coupe**

Lyricist:Roger Christian, Brian Wilson

Little deuce coupe, you don't know
You don't know what I got

Well, I'm not braggin', babe
So don't pull me down
But I've got the fastest
Set of wheels in town

When something comes up to me
He don't even try
'Cos if it 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 flathead mill
But she'll walk a Thunderbird
Like it's standin' still

Though she's ported and relieved
And she's stroked and bored
She'll do a hundred and forty
In 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 enough
To make you flip your lid
There's one more thing
I've got the pink slip, daddy

And comin' off the line
When the light turns green
Oh well she blows 'em outta the water
Like you've 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
...

Well, I saved my pennies and I saved my dimes

Ooh, giddyup, giddyup
Ooh, giddyup, giddyup
Ooh, giddyup, giddyup
Ooh, giddyup, giddyup

When I take her to the track she really shines
(Giddyup, giddyup, 409)
She always turns in the fastest time
(Giddyup, giddyup, 409)
My four-speed, dual-quad, posi-traction 409
(409, 409)

Giddyup, giddyup, giddyup, 409
