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 'em 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 decidin' to stay

And let me say
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

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

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

Let's take your car and to amusement parks USA
At Palisades in Salisbury Parks the rolly coasters are flyin
At Euclid Beach on the flying turns I'll bet you can't keep her smilin'
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.
Watchin' girls in the air can really get you bad
And I'll bet the laughin' lady makes you laugh like mad
Let's pick up our friends and do amusement parks USA

(Spoken, supposedly by Beach Boys session drummer Hal Blaine)
Hurry, hurry, hurry folks step right up to the Beach Boy circus.
The best little show in town.
Hurry, hurry, hurry, it's only a dime folks, one thin dime, just one tenth of a dollar.
Come on in and see Stella the snake dancer (Is it real?)
She walks, she talks, she wiggles on her belly like a snake.
(She looks like afake to me) (Let's go see her) (It costs too much)
Hurry, hurry, hurry folks, come on and see Stella.
She shimmies, she shakes....

You'll crash and burn in the bumper cars at Jersey's steel pier
You'll crack 'em 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 sittin' right by your side
Let's take your car and mess around at the park all day

. . .


Well I walked up to her
And I asked her if she wanted to dance
She looked awfull nice
And so I hoped she might take a chance

When we danced I held her tight
And then I walked her home that night
And all the stars were shining bright
And then I kissed her

And 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
And then I kissed her

I kissed her in a way
That I never kissed a girl before
I kissed her in a way
That I hope she likes forever more

I knew that she was mine
So I gave her all the love that I had
And 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 I almost cried
And then I kissed her
And then I kissed her
And then I kissed her

. . .


Down in Utah
The guys and I dig a city called Salt Lake
It's got the grooviest kids
That's why we never get tired of Salt Lake
And the way the kids talk so cool
Is an out of sight thing
And the number one radio station
Makes the town really swing yeah
Salt Lake City we'll be coming soon

There's a park near the city, yeah
All the kids dig the Lagoon now
It's full of all kinds of girls
And rides and we'll be flyin' there soon now
And girl for girl
They've got the cutest of the Western states
They got the sun in the summer
And winter time the skiing is great yeah
Salt Lake City we'll be coming soon

Salt Lake City we'll be coming soon

We'll be coming soon
We'll be coming soon
We'll be coming soon

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-uy-uy 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 ti-i-ime I'm not gonna 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-ite-ite
Girl don't tell me you'll write-ite-ite
Girl don't tell me you'll write me again this time

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
Said I'm the guy-uy-uy who
Left you with tears in his eyes
You didn't answer my letters
So I figured it was just lie

Girl Don't tell me you'll write-ite-ites
Girl don't tell me you'll write-ite-ite
Girl don't tell me you'll write me again this time

Girl don't tell me you'll write me again this time

Come in late at night and in the mornin' I just lay in bed

And it shattered our plan

And I can give you lotsa reasons why
You gotta help me Rhonda

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

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 girl

(Let him run wild)
(He don't care baby)
Let him run
(Let him run wild)
(He'll find out baby)
Let him run
(Let him run run run run wild baby)

(Guess you know I waited for you girl)
He'll do the same to other girls
That he did to you
Then one day he'll run in to one
That's gonna hurt him too
So before he makes you over
I'm gonna take you over

(Let him run wild)
(He don't care baby)
Let him run
(Let him run wild)
(He'll find out baby)
Let him run
(Let him run run run run wild baby)

(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 baby)
Let him run
(Let him run wild)
(He'll find out baby)
Let him run
(Let him run run run run wild baby)
Let him run
(Let him run run run run wild baby)
Let him run
(Let him run run run run wild baby)
Let him run

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

Summer Means New Love

[No lyrics]

I'm bugged at my ol' man
Cause he's making me stay in my room
(Darn my dad)

I came in a little late
And my ol' man he just blew his mind
(Blew it bad)

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
(Gosh it's dark)

I can't hit the surf, can't drag
Can't do a dog-goned thing
(Wish I could)

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
(Smells so good)

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
(Now it's gone)

I wish I could do some homework
But I got suspended from school
(Blew my cool)

I'm bugged at my ol' man
And he doesn't even know where it's at

. . .


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

. . .
