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.

SUMMERTIME BLUES

I'm a gonna raise a fuss and I'm gonna raise a holler about a working all summer
just to try to earn a dollar
Every time I call my baby to try to get a date my boss says: "No dice girl, you gotta work late"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a gonna do 'cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues

Well my mama pupa told me: "Girl, you gotta make some money if you want to use the care to go riding next Sunday"
Well I didn't go to work I told the boss I was sick
"Now you can't use the car cause you didn't work a lick"

Sometimes I wonder what I'm a gonna do 'cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues

I'm gonna take two weeks
I'm gonna have a fun vacation
I'm gonna take my problem to the United Nations
Well, I called my congresswoman she said quote: "I'd like to help you girl, but you're too young to vote"

Sometimes I wonder what I'm a gonna do 'cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
There ain't no cure for the summertime blues (ain't no cure for the summertime blues)
There ain't no cure for the summertime blues (ain't no cure for the summertime blues)
There ain't no cure for the summertime blues (ain't no cure for the summertime blues)
There ain't no cure for the summertime blues (ain't no cure for the summertime blues)
There ain't no cure...
