Notes
-
- The first ballad that Brian ever wrote and the first ballad that the Beach Boys released as a single, this song shows the maturity in Brian' s writing as early as 1963. Brian admits that the song was inspired by the Walt Disney song "When You Wish Upon A Star."
- The "Surfer Girl" that this song lends it title to and begins, is the first Beach Boys album officially produced by Brian. Although it contains a fair bit of filler, the quality tracks make it an endearing document of the early Beach Boys' sound.

Little surfer little one
Made my heart come all undone
Do you love me, do you surfer girl
Surfer girl my little surfer girl
I have watched you on the shore
Standing by the ocean's roar
Do you love me do you surfer girl
Surfer girl surfer girl
We could ride the surf together
While our love would grow
In my Woodie I would take you everywhere I go
So I say from me to you
I will make your dreams come true
Do you love me do you surfer girl
Surfer girl my little surfer girl
Little one
Girl surfer girl my little surfer girl
Little one
Girl surfer girl my little surfer girl
Little one
Girl surfer girl my little surfer girl
