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.

HELLO JOE

I saw you taping thunder from your balcony saving the sounds don't trust your memory

I see you cage the lightning hold it up so you can see through your blue windows looking down at me

Let's wake the roosters night time's gonna go we'll walk and talk real soft before the light begins to show

Let's wake the roosters nice to know ya Joe

Let's wake the roosters hola Joe

Catch the sunrise in a glass if you turn your back you'll miss it coming up real fast

Set your trap for night time lie down in the dark listen to the thunder listen to my heart

Let's wake the roosters nighttime's gonna go we'll walk and talk real soft before the light begins to show

Let's wake the roosters nice to know ya Joe let's wake the roosters hey-ho hola Joe

Caught you in the rain it took you by surprise I'll take you home and dance with you until your clothes are dry

Place your finger on my pulse
I'll keep the sight of you keep it nice and close

And when I feel the breath of spring on my face I know the sight and sound of you won't be erased

Let's wake the roosters nighttime's gonna go we'll walk and talk real soft before the light begins to show

Let's wake the roosters nice to know ya Joe let's wake the roosters hey-ho hola Joe
