Summer Days (and Summer Nights!!)

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

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 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

Well since she put me down i've been out doin' in my head
Come in late at night and in the mornin' i just lay in bed

Well, rhonda you look so fine (look so fine)
And i know it wouldn't take much time
For you to help me rhonda
Help me get her out of my heart

Help me rhonda
Help, help me rhonda

Help, help me rhonda

Help, help me rhonda
Help me rhonda yeah
Get her out of my heart

She was gonna be my wife
And i was gonna be her man
But she let another guy come between us
And it ruined our plan


Well, rhonda you caught my eye (caught my eye)
And i can give you lotsa reasons why
You gotta help me rhonda
Help me get her out of my heart

Help me rhonda
Help, help me rhonda

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-ite
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

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

She came out with her best friend for the summer in l. a.
They took a spot and plopped down on the beach
You find them there near 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
