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.

LOVE AT THE PIER

We fell in love down at the pier you were sunbathing I was around soon we were sharing a beer we fell in love at the pier I'm no sentimental slob so don't think I'm queer you got somethin' baby and it ain't just my beer well maybe it's the hot pants maybe the heat or was it the sneakers you kicked of your feet I sat under my umbrella to keep my pearly skin you tanned your oily body looking like sin well soon I was sweatin' and I wanted to leave you slipped into the water from too much grease well I saw you yelling I just couldn't hear so I screamed back at ya honey keep the beer we never consummated our outside love affair too much tar and water too much hot air oh what a tragic end to love that was lost
We would have stood a chance if we met in the frost but we fell in love down at pier you were sunbathing I was around now I go to beaches with my girlfriend no more love splinters in my rear end
