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.

WAR CHILD

I need city lights defense and weaponry no way of knowing my life expectancy I learn resistance like I learn to see a living witness a lonely refugee

I'm a war child I'm a war baby and that's the difference between you and me I'm a war child my occupation is being occupied I stop at the corner to be identified Across the border they pretend victory I'm playing in the rubble and dream of destiny

You were'nt discovered by Khmer Rouge we hear of the troubles on the nightly news PLO lovers courting after the curfew your father and brother have the West Bank blues
