Barbara Ann

Rating Comments Author Date
Average song rating "Barbara Ann" appeared on the remarkable Beach Boys Party! album, and The Who appropriate it for their own "Ready Steady Who" EP, which could have been entitled, based on the material, The Who Party! The Who do a fine job with it, adding a very un-Beach-Boy like "vocal" the third time they run through the chorus. Listen for it... Bruce Beatlefan January 14, 2008

Lyrics

Ba ba ba, ba Barbara Ann,
Ba ba ba, ba Barbara Ann,
Barbara Ann, take my hand, Barbara Ann
You've got me rockin' and a'rollin'
Rockin' and a'reelin' Barbara Ann

I went to a dance
Looking for romance
Saw Barbara Ann so I thought I'd take a chance
With Barbara Ann, Barbara Ann
You've got me rockin' and a'rollin'
Rockin' and a'reelin' Barbara Ann

Tried Mary Lou,
Tried Peggy Sue,
Tried Freddie too
But I knew she wouldn't do
Like Barbara Ann, Barbara Ann
You've got me rockin' and a'rollin'
Rockin' and a'reelin' Barbara Ann

Barbara Ann, Barbara Ann...
