The Deborah Harry song catalog you find on this page was compiled by me, the webmaster, with the help of my personal record collection, booklets, biographies, setlists, ASCAP, the LoC (Library of Congress), articles and (live) bootlegs. It's my goal to create a page which features Deborah's complete musical body of work, no matter if Deborah was in any way musically involved herself or whether she contributed her own lyrics to a project. In order to keep up the standard of this page and to make it grow you can help by submitting song titles and/or information which are missing on this site. Every contribution is greatly appreciated. Official song lyrics were taken from booklets. I transcribed those songs myself where no official lyrics were available (with no guarantee for their accuracy). I apologize for possible errors and will gladly take corrections. I kindly ask you not to copy any of these lyrics from this page.
All song pages include links to the albums, singles and/or live albums which they were released on. Best Ofs and soundtracks were only listed if there is a special mix available on the record or the song title itself was previously unreleased.

I WANT THAT MAN

I wanna dance with Harry Dean drive through Texas in a black limousine I want a piece of heaven before I die I wanna pair of pink high heels that catch the lights up on the Ferris wheel but what I really want I just can't buy here comes the twenty-first century it's gonna be much better for a girl like me cuz I want everything I can but most of all I want that man I want that man

I wanna move like what's his name I'll keep the money you can have the fame everything that's yours will soon be mine

Yeah I wanna be the Queen of the USA you could send me roses every other day but what I really want I just can't buy

Here comes the twenty first century it's gonna be much better for a girl like me cuz I want everything I can but most of all I want that man I want that man.

Hey I wanna be kissed from head to toe by that man in the very back row but he won't even look me in the eye ah I want his love to rain right down on me I want him to be king of all my dreams but what I really want I just can't hide

Here comes the twenty first century it's gonna be much better for a girl like me cuz I want everything I can but most of all I want that man I want that man
