1. "Let Us Go On This Way"
Time: 2:00
Brian Wilson/Mike Love
To get t'you baby I went through the wringer
Ain't gonna let you slip through my fingers
Going to school isn't my fondest desire
But sittin' in class you set my soul on fire
God please let us go on this way
All day long I practiced what to say-ay
I think about this game that I like to play-ay
When I leave you I'm so depressed
'Cause you're my only happiness
God please let us go on this way
Seems we have extra-sensory perception
You can send me thoughts I'd have no objection
Now we can fly high in the sky
We'll live forever, we'll never die
God please let us go on this way-ay
(God please let us go on)
God please let us go on this way-ay
(God please let us go on)
God please let us go on this way-ay
(God please let us go on)
God don't let her slip through my fingers
(God please let us go on)
God please let us go on this way-ay
2. "Roller Skating Child"
Time:2:18
Brian Wilson
Well she's a roller skating child
With a ribbon in her hair
She gets my heart to beating
When I see her there
You know my heart starts smiling when she sings
She's such an angel I bet she's got wings
And we'll make sweet lovin' when the sun goes down
We'll even do more when your mama's not around
Well oh my oh gosh oh gee
She really send chills inside of me
They've got a record playing in the skatin' rink
She comes skatin' past me and she gives me a wink
I go and get my skates on and I catch up with her
We do it holdin' hands it's so cold I go "brrr"
And we'll make sweet lovin' when the sun goes down
We'll even do more when her mama's not around
Well oh my oh gosh oh gee
She really send chills inside of me
Round and around and around we go
The music keeps me on my feet
It's sweet it's sweet it's sweeter than honey
When we're walkin' down the street
(That's right)
We run in to the kitchen and we grab a bite
Her folks let me stay with her 'til late at night
So many guys want a girl like mine
A love like this happens only one time
And we'll make sweet lovin' when the sun goes down
We'll even do more when her mama's not around
Well oh my oh gosh oh gee
She really send chills inside of me

5. "Good Time"
Time: 2:51
Brian Wilson/Al Jardine
My girlfriend Betty she's always ready
To help me in any way
She'll do my cookin' she's always lookin'
For ways she can make my day
And when I'm lookin' at her the sound of pitter patter
On rainy days like today
Could get you feelin' warmer
And you know what-a that can lead to
Maybe it won't last but what do we care
My baby and I just want a good time
Might go up in smoke now but what do we care
My baby and I just want a good time
My girlfriend Penny, she's kinda skinny
And so she needs her falsies on
She don't like cookin' but she's so good lookin'
I miss her when she's gone
And when she gets to dancin' I feel just like romancin'
Especially when we're dancing close
She'll do the dirty boogie
And that's when I go up in smoke
Maybe it won't last but what do we care
My baby and I just want a good time
Might end up in tears now but what do we care
My baby and I just want a good time
Wo wo wo wo wo wo wo uh
Wo wo wo
Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo
Wo wo wo
Maybe it won't last but what do we care
My baby and I just want a good time
For just a few hours with nuÑoh what do we care

Good time
Oh good time

Honkin' honkin' down the gosh darn highway
Tryin' tryin' to get past them cars

She's the one that said she'd go with me
To see a little movie tonight
(Honk honk honkin' down the highway)
Her folks told me that she's lonely
And she loves me only
She's used to running away from guys
Prayin' prayin' that she'll hold me tight (hoo!)
And hopin' hopin' that she'll see the light
Who cares if I gotta spend my money
Even if I have to act funny
To go and steal her heart away

8. "Solar System"
Time: 2:49
Brian Wilson
What do the planets mean? And have you ever seen
Sunrise in the morn? It shined when you were born.
Saturn has rings all around it
I searched the sky and I found it
Solar system
Brings us wisdom
Then there's the Milky Way, that's where the angels play
You've seen the lover's moon, looks good in the month of June
Neptune is god of the sea-ea-ea
Pluto is too far to see-ee-ee
Solar system
Brings us wisdom
The constellations are stars that form animals
Leo and Capricorn, too
Star bright, star light
Make this wish come true tonight
If Mars had life on it I might find my wife on it
Venus the goddess of love can thank all the stars above
Mercury's close to the sun
You'll see it when day is done
Solar system
Brings us wisdom
Solar system
Brings us wisdom

9. "The Night Was So Young"
Time: 2:17
Brian Wilson
The night was so young and everything still
The moon shining bright on my window sill
I think of her lips, it chills me inside
And then I think why does she have to hide
Is somebody gonna tell me why she has to hi-i-ide
She's passin' it by, she won't even try
To make this love go where it should
The sky's turnin' gray, there's clouds overhead
I'm still not asleep, I'm in my bed
I think of her eyes and it makes me sigh
I think of her voice and it makes me cry
Is somebody gonna tell me why she has to lie-i-ie
She'd be so right to hold me tonight
Love was made for her and I
It's three o'clock I go to my sink
I pour some milk and I start to think
Is she asleep or is she awake
And does she think of the love we could make
Wake up, call me baby call me tell me what's on your mi-i-ind
I've got a car and you're not too far
Please let me come over to you
The night was so young and everything still
The moon shining bright on my window sill
I think of her lips, it chills me inside
And then I think why should she hide
10. "I'll Bet He's Nice"
Time: 2:36
Brian Wilson
I'll bet he's nice
I'll bet he's twice
As nice as me and it makes me cry
'Cause I remember you and I
Please don't tell me if it's true
Because I'm still in love with you
Pretty darlin' you my pretty darlin'
You pretty darlin you my pretty darlin'
I'll bet he's sweet
(Bed eh oooo)
I'll bet he's neat
(Bed eh oooo)

I'll bet he shows you quite a ball
Please don't tell me if it's true
Because I'm still in love with you
Pretty darlin' you my pretty darlin'

Now that you got me to believe in
You are the sunshine and the flower
Come on and make my every hour
I'll bet he's nice
(Bed eh oooo)
I'll bet he's twice
(Bed eh oooo)
As nice as me and it makes me cry

Because I'm still in love with you

You pretty darlin you my pretty darlin'
Well it's you

11. "Let's Put Our Hearts Together"
Time: 2:15
Brian Wilson
I don't wanna tell you that I care for you
And have you just ignore me
It's better that I wait and see just how you feel
And maybe you'll adore me
I know you've had so much experience
That you don't need another person in your life
I know it may sound funny
But you're the kind of woman
Who'd make a very sweet wife
Take your time, don't worry how you feel because
You know we've got forever
Maybe I'll come up with some idea and
You'd think that I was clever
I've never had someone I need someone
To live with and be good to
Don't worry 'bout your past loves
And if they've never understood you
Let's put our hearts together
And say we'll leave each other never
Let's see what we can cook up between us
Together
Together
Together you and I
12. "I Wanna Pick You Up"
Time: 2:40
Brian Wilson
I love to pick you up
'Cause you're still a baby to me
Cribs and cradles and bottles and toys
Are part of the joys they bring
I wanna wash your face
And change your clothes and button your shoes
Walk you around and wrestle with you
Then I'm gonna make you sing
In the mornin' I could wake you up
Feed you breakfast from a little cup
I want to pick you up
Rock you back and forth and make you smile
I want to hold you close for a while
I wanna tickle your feet
Drop you in your little tub
Wash your body and shampoo your hair
Be careful not to sting your eyes
When it's night I'll put you in your bed
And I'll bend and kiss ya on your head
I want to pick you up
Rock you back and forth and make you smile
I want to hold you close for a while
Pat pat pat pat pat her on her butt butt
She's going to sleep be quiet
Pat pat pat pat pat her on her butt
She's going to sleep
Little baby go to sleep
13. "Airplane"
Time: 3:05
Brian Wilson
Over the city in an airplane
I can see everything below
The houses they look so tiny
The cars look like dots
We've only got fifteen minutes to go
The clouds in the sky caress my mind so tenderly
The sun shines down on the great big beautiful scene
The sound of the engine fills my ears up
I'm hopin' this rainy weather clears up
My lover is waiting at the airport
Soon she'll be kissing me hello
The woman sitting next to me tells me 'bout her guy
And I tell her all about you and I
Airplane, airplane
Carry me back to her side
Airplane, airplane
I need God as my guide
Down, down on the ground
Can't wait to see her face
(a-1, a-2, a-1, 2, 3)
I can't wait (can't wait)
To see (her face)
I can't wait (can't wait)
To see (her face)
I can't wait (can't wait)
To see (her face)
I can't wait (can't wait)
To see (her face)
I can't wait (can't wait)
To see (her face)
I can't wait (can't wait)
To see (her face)
I can't wait (can't wait)
To see (her face)
I can't wait (can't wait)
To see (her face)
I can't wait (can't wait)
To see (her face)
