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.

GOLDEN ROD

As sure as anything sure as I can be that ninety nine percent pure as ivory

What's that pretty flower I see tall and wild it waves at me mother said it's just a weed golden rod golden rod

Growing wild not in the city gave me an allergy hey my reactions what's going to happen it gets no help from me

I can't explain it maybe I shouldn't try to that old genetical had a hold on me

We co-incited ran head long into it and mothers warning useless to me

What's that pretty flower I see tall and wild it waves at me mother said it's just a weed golden rod golden rod

Another blonde not from the city who gave me an allergy well you can see me drinking the poison taking it happily

What's that pretty flower I see tall and wild it waves at me mother said it's just a weed golden rod golden rod

Another blonde not from the city who gave me an allergy and my reactions what's gonna happen it gets no help from me
