Round round get around

Get around round round I get around

Get around round round I get around
My kinda 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 finda 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

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
My kinda town
Get around round round I get around

Sittin' in my car outside your house
(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
(T-shirts, cut-offs, and a pair of thongs)
We've been having fun all summer long

(All summer long you've been with me)
I can't see enough of you
(All summer long we've both been free)
Won't be long til summer time is through
(Summer time is through)
Not for us now

Miniature golf and Hondas in the hills
(Miniature golf and Hondas in the hills)
When we rode the horse we got some thrills
Every now and then we hear our song
(Every now and then we hear our song)
We've been having fun all summer long

Won't be long til summer time is through
(Summer time is through)
Not for us now
Every now and then we hear our song
(Every now and then we hear our song)
We've been having fun all summer long
We've been having fun all summer long
(We've been having fun all summer long)
We've been having fun all summer long
(We've been having fun all summer long)
We've been having fun all summer long

In your dreams I'll hold you tight
Lullabye and good night
'Till the dawn's early light

Pillows lying on your bed
Oh my darling rest your head
Sand man will be coming soon
Singing you a slumber tune

Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo

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

. . .


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
(Ran away and got married)
Anyhow
(Ran away and got married)
They ran away and got married anyhow

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.

Little Richard sang it
And Dick Clarke brought it to life
Danny and the Juniors
Hit a groove struck as sharp as the knife
Well now do you remember
All the guys that gave us rock'n'roll

Chuck Berry's gotta be
The greatest thing that came along
He made the guitar beats
And wrote the all time greatest song
Well now do you remember
All the guys that gave us rock'n'roll

Elvis Presley is the King
He's the giant of the day
Paved the way for the rock'n'roll star

Yeah the critics kept a knockin'
But the stars kept a rockin'
And the choppin' didn't get very far
Goodness gracious great balls of fire

Well nothin's really happenin'
'Till the saxophones ready to blow
And the beat's not jumpin'
'Till the drummer says he's ready to go
Well now do you remember
All the guys that gave us rock'n'roll

Let's hear the high voice wail (oo-oo-oo-oo)
And here the voice down low (ah-ah ah-ah)
Let's hear the background
(Um-didi-wada um-didi-wada um-didi-wada um-didi-wada)

They gave us rock'n'roll
They gave us rock'n'roll
They gave us rock'n'roll

Ah ah ah ah oo ooo ooo oo ahh
The girls on the beach

On the beach you'll find them there
In the sun and salty air
The girls on the beach
Are all within reach
If you know what to do

How we love to lie around
Girls with tans of golden brown
The girls on the beach
Are all within reach
And one waits there for you
(Girls on the beach)

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
The girls on the beach
Are all within reach
And with the boys tonight
(Girls on the beach)

Girls on the beach, girls on the beach
Girls on the beach, girls on the beach

. . .


Everytime 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
(Ooo wah)
I love the drive in
(We love the drive in, we love the drive in)

If the windows get fogged you'll have to take a breath
(Oooooooo waah oooo)
Down at the drive in
(Wah wah ooooooo)
Or the cat dressed in white will scare you both to death
Down at the drive in

A big buttered popcorn and an extra large coke
A few chili dogs and man I'm goin' broke
Down at the drive in
(Ooo wah)
Yeah at the drive in
(We love the drive in, we love the drive in)

Don't sneak your buddies in the trunk 'cause they might get caught
By the drive in
(Wah wah wah ooooooo)
And they'd look kinda stupid gettin' chased through the lot
(Wah ooooooo)
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"
Down at the drive in
(Ooo wah)
I love the drive in
(We love the drive in, we love the drive in)
Down at the drive in
(Ooo wah)
I love the drive in
(We love the drive in, we love the drive in)
Down at the drive in
(Ooo wah)
I love the drive in
(We love the drive in, we love the drive in)

Hey hey come in they come

O.k. boys, take one

Hey, will you take off that hat? You look like George Washington!
I'll throw you across the river.
You'll throw me across? The what? The Pontiac?
I'll throw you across the river. I threw a silver dollar across, I can
throw you.

When you hear the countdown, everyone shut up because it's awful tight.

You, You did?
I know where you can get 'em.

Here we go
For 99 cents
We're on
You got a better deal than I did
I know
Is this mike on?

All the way from Hawthorne California we're flying over Carl Wilson who's
going to jump 600 feet into a two foot cup
Into a damp rag
Come on
Hey look, I'm gonna leave you home
Hey you guys just a second, I forgot my note
Just a second I'm gonna go to the piano

Ahh Ahh
O.k. let's make one Charlie.
You guys ready, let's go.

Don't ever say you're not afraid of any wave boy
Then turn and run for your life cause your not thrilled boy
(Don't back down don't back down) (di di di di)
Just grit your teeth take it on but don't back down

Don't back down don't back down
Don't back down don't back down
Don't back down don't back down
From that wave

I used to laugh when I saw a surfer go under
(Don't back down don't back down) (di di di di)
Until I tried it and my ears sounded just like thunder
(Don't back down don't back down) (di di di di)
I know what it's like when you feel like backing down

Don't back down don't back down
Don't back down don't back down
Don't back down don't back down
From that wave

It's just as scary as it looks and it's rough enough now
(Don't back down don't back down) (di di di di)
And if you're any kind of athlete you're tough enough now
(Don't back down don't back down) (di di di di)
You're gonna find out when you start backing down

Don't back down don't back down
Don't back down don't back down
Don't back down don't back down
From that wave
