Let Me In (c) Darryl John 2010
C Am F G
Let me in, let me in,
Baby let me in, let me in,
Oh baby let me in, let me in
Please just let me in.
Baby’s mad at me,
She’s angry as can be,
She thinks that I’m a louse,
She locked me out the house,
Oh baby don’t you know,
That I really love you so,
So let me in.
Let me in, let me in,
Baby let me in, let me in,
Oh baby let me in, let me in
Please just let me in.
E Am E F G
I don’t know what I’ve done,
To make you flip your lid.
If I could turn back the hands of time,
I wouldn’t do whatever I did?
C Am F G
So let me in, let me in,
Baby let me in, let me in,
Oh baby let me in, let me in
Please just let me in.
F C D7 G
Sweet thing, open the door,
I’m down on my knee.
I’ll do everything that you ask,
If you’ll only agree.
C Am F G
To let me in, let me in,
Come on let me in, let me in,
Please let me in, let me in
Please just let me in.
Instrumental
I can hear you inside,
My little blushing bride.
This I implore,
Open up the door.
There’s no catch,
Just unlock the latch,
And let me in.
She’s let me in, let me in,
Baby’s let me in, let me in,
Oh baby’s let me in, let me in
She just let me in.
E Am E F G
I don’t know what I’ve done,
To make you flip your lid.
If I could turn back the hands of time,
I wouldn’t do whatever I did?
C Am F G
She’s got a gun, got a gun,
Baby’s got a gun, got a gun,
I know she’s got a gun, got a gun,
Guess I’d better run, better run.
So let me out, let me out
Please let me out, let me out
Please just let me out, let me out,
For God’s sake let me out.

Friday Night Cruisin’ (c) Darryl John 2014
Verse 1:
We always went out cruisin’ on a Friday night
We stayed out of trouble, we never started a fight.
Drivin’ around, listenin’ to the radio
We always tuned in to our favourite show
Verse 2:
Listenin’ to our music every chance that we could
The great songs were great, the rest were really good
Rock and roll was surely here to stay
Fast cars and music every night and day
Chorus:
Friday night cruisin’, Saturday night boozin’;
Sunday we were in by ten.
Back to work on Monday, no more fun hey
‘til Friday comes around again.
Verse 3:
With JB ridin’ shotgun, we would cruise the town,
Always on the lookout for action goin’ down.
Check out that hoon, he thinks his car is fast,
Movin’ alongside, this could be a blast.
Verse 4:
A thumbs down by JB, is quickly answered back,
Up to the next lights there’s no turning back.
That’s an eight he’s running, it sounds really cool,
Pedal to the metal, just take a look at that fool.
Chorus:
Friday night cruisin’, Saturday night boozin’;
Sunday we were in by ten.
Back to work on Monday, no more fun hey
‘til Friday comes around again.
Verse 5:
Now there’s the green light, better drop the clutch,
Tyres spinning wildly, I’ve given her too much.
But mine’s the fastest, I’m leaving him behind,
JB thinks it’s cool and I really don’t mind.
Verse 6:
Friday night’s were spent, cruisin’ down the strip,
Petrol heads were dragging in cars from the tip.
By Saturday night we were out on the booze
Livin’ our lives, just the way we choose.
Chorus:
Friday night cruisin’, Saturday night boozin’;
Sunday we were in by ten.
Back to work on Monday, no more fun hey
‘til Friday comes around again.
Final Chorus:
Friday night cruisin’, Saturday night boozin’;
Sunday we were in by ten.
Back to work on Monday, no more fun hey
‘til Friday comes around again.
‘til Friday comes around again.

If you don’t then please just go.
I don’t want you hanging around,
Leaving me with a worn out frown.

Don’t you know babe you’ve got me on the run

I’ve been a fool, you were so cruel,
You’ve led me on since we were in school

You’ve hurt me so,
Now if you love me please let me know.

The Local Dance (c) Darryl John 2016
I went out the other night
You know that I was feeling alright
I went down to the local dance
Hope to find me some romance
I saw a honey, I had no money
But I thought that I’d take a chance
I slowly walked on over to her
Hoping not to cause a stir
Then I asked her up to dance
She said beat it, not a chance
You look funny, you got no money
Were you looking for some cheap romance
I didn’t know just what to say
By then I wasn’t feeling OK
She knocked the wind right out of my sail
I didn’t think that I’d miserably fail
Instrumental
I saw another girl from afar
She looked just like a movie star
So I mustered up more nerve
Sidled over with a swerve
Cold as frost, go get lost
You’re a loser you don’t have a car
I didn’t know just what to say
Now I really wasn’t feeling OK
They’d knocked the wind right out of my sail
I didn’t think that I’d miserably fail
Then I saw her sitting there
What I noticed was jet black hair
A little glance and then a wink
A pretty smile made me think
All was fine, she’d be mine
At the local dance when I was there
At the local dance, I ended up with romance.
