Ohh darlin'
My darlin' you're so fine
Ohhhh-hhh-hhh ... k9ssaNs pappa luktar

Don't know if words can say
But darlin' I'll find a way
To let you know what you meant to me
Guess it was meant to be
I hold you in my heart
As life's most precious part

Oh darlin'
I dream about you often, my pretty girl, baby
(Darlin' you're so fine)
I love the way you soften my life with your love
Your precious love uh huh oh

I was living like half a man
Then I couldn't love but now I can
You pick me up when I'm feeling sad
More soul than I ever had
Gonna love you every single night
Cause I think you're too outta sight

Oh darlin'
I dream about you often, my pretty girl, baby
(Darlin' you're so fine)
I love the way you soften my life with your love
Your precious love uh huh oh

Woah oh oh oh
Every night darlin'
Gonna love you every single night, yes I will
Cause I think you're too doggone outta sight

Oh darlin'
I dream about you often, my pretty girl, baby
(Darlin' you're so fine)
I love the way you soften my life with your love
Your precious love uh huh oh

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 gonna 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 baby
Sleep tight baby

Good night baby
Sleep tight baby

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

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

It's automatic when I talk with old friends
Conversations turn to girls we knew
When their hair was soft and long
And the beach was the place to go.

Suntanned bodies and waves of sunshine
The California girls and a beautiful coastline
With warmed up weather let's get together
And do it again.

With a girl the lonely sea looks good in moonlight
Makes your night times warm and out of sight...
It's all right...jonas pappa luktar

Well I've been thinking 'bout all the places
We've surfed and danced and
All the faces we've missed, so let's get
Back together and do it again.

. . .


One by one the stars appear
The light of the day is no longer here

One by one the stars disappear
The sky grows brighter every minute of the sunrise

Wake the world with a brand new morning
Say hello to another fine morning
Got my face in the running water

Making my life so much brighter
Moon shines bright, asleep in my bed
Like so many people got a big day ahead of me

Wake the world with a brand new morning
Say hello to another fine morning
Wouldn't miss it for all of its glory
I'll be there when you're calling me

One by one the stars appear
The light of the day is no longer here

. . .


Today could be a lot of fun
And precious one
I'd feel good just to walk with you

Tonight will be a special treat
You're so sweet
And I feel good just to talk with you

You know that I been a long time needing you
You say that you been a long time needing me
And don't you know that there's so much more to come

I got a heart that just won't stop beating for you
I got a love I just can't stop feeling for you

Aren't you glad now darling there's me and you
(Tell me tell me you know what I mean) [me and you]
And I say aren't you glad with these days comes somethin' new
(Tell me tell me you know what I mean) [me and you]
And I say aren't you glad now tell me you're so glad
[Me and you]

(Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo)
Today is another day
Another way to get this feeling across to you
Tonight will be another night
That's outta sight cause I know the way to get close to you

You know that I'll be a long time loving you
I hope that you'll be a long time loving me
And don't you know that there's so much more to come

I got a heart that just won't stop beating for you
I got a love I just can't stop feeling for you

Aren't you glad now darling there's me and you
(Tell me tell me you know what I mean) [me and you]
And I say aren't you glad with these days comes summer
(Tell me tell me you know what I mean) [me and you]
And I say aren't you glad now tell me you're so glad
[Me and you]

Bluebirds over the mountain
Seagulls over the sea
Bluebirds over the mountain
Bring my baby to me

A boy and a girl they once found love
To each it seemed like heaven above
He looked into her eyes and said
Ooo wee baby you're so good for my head

Bluebirds over the mountain
Seagulls over the sea
Bluebirds over the mountain
Bring my baby to me

Oh everyone in every land
Please give me a helping hand
If you see her all alone
Oh tell my baby "won't you please come home?"

Bluebirds over the mountain
Seagulls over the sea
Bluebirds over the mountain
Bring my baby to me

Oh bring my baby back
I don't know why she's been so long
But all I know is that she's gone
Oh bring my baby back to me
Well I'm in pain can't you see

A boy and a girl they once found love
To each it seemed like heaven above
I guess that's why we fell in love
And now she's gone and all I have to say is

Bluebirds over the mountain
Seagulls over the sea yeah
Bluebirds over the mountain
Bring my baby to me

Bring my baby
Oooo Baby
Oooo oooo oooo oooo

There's a story told of a very gentle boy
And the girl who wore his ring
Through the wintery snow
The world they knew was one
For their hearts were full of spring

As the days grew old
And the nights passed into time
And the weeks and years took wind
Gentle boy, tender girl
Their love remained still young
For their hearts were full of spring

Then one day they died
And their graves were side by side
On a hill where robins sing
And they say violets
Grow there the whole year round
For their hearts were full of spring

. . .


I, I love the colorful clothes she wears
And the way the sunlight plays upon her hair
I hear the sound of a gentle word
On the wind that lifts her perfume through the air

I'm pickin' up good vibrations
She's giving me excitations
I'm pickin' up good vibrations
(Oom bop bop good vibrations)
She's giving me excitations
(Oom bop bop excitations)
Good good good good vibrations
(Oom bop bop)
She's giving me excitations
(Oom bop bop excitations)
Good good good good vibrations
(Oom bop bop)
She's giving me excitations
(Oom bop bop excitations)

Close my eyes
She's somehow closer now
Softly smile, I know she must be kind
When I look in her eyes
She goes with me to a blossom world

I'm pickin' up good vibrations
She's giving me excitations
I'm pickin' up good vibrations
(Oom bop bop good vibrations)
She's giving me excitations
(Oom bop bop excitations)
Good good good good vibrations
(Oom bop bop)
She's giving me excitations
(Oom bop bop excitations)
Good good good good vibrations
(Oom bop bop)
She's giving me excitations
(Oom bop bop excitations)

I don't know where, but she sends me there.

Gotta keep those a lovin good vibrations
A happenin' with her
Gotta keep...

Hum be dum hum be dum
Hum be dum hum be dum

(repeat Gotta keep.. 1X

Good good good good vibrations
(Oom bop bop)
(I'm pickin' up good vibrations)
She's giving me excitations
(Oom bop bop)
(Excitations)
Good good good good vibrations
(Oom bop bop Exi)

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
