Angus Stone(born 27 April 1986) is an Australian folk singer-songwriter and record producer-engineer. He is one half of the musical sibling duo Angus & Julia Stone, with whom he has released four studio albums. His debut solo album, Smoking Gun, was released in April 2009 under the pseudonym Lady of the Sunshine, and reached the top 50 on the ARIA Albums Chart. His second solo album, Broken Brights, was issued on 13 July 2012 and peaked at No. 2.

Angus Stone was born on 27 April 1986 and grew up in Sydney. His parents, John and Kim Stone, were both folk musicians. Stone's older sisters are Catherine (born ca. 1982) and Julia Stone (born 13 April 1984). Stone attended Newport Primary School and Barrenjoey High School. At primary school he joined the school band with his father teaching and his sisters accompanying. At family gatherings when the children performed, Stone played trombone, Catherine on saxophone and Julia on trumpet with Kim singing and John on keyboa d or guitar. At about the age of 14 years his parents separated and soon after he started writing pop songs. Stone joined a band in high school as lead singer playing both covers and original songs. The band performed at numerous local community events.

While on a holiday with his sister to South America, Stone showcased his musical side to Julia, "[Angus] was writing amazing songs... [he] had shown me how to play guitar in Bolivia, and those songs had gotten me through that year". By 2005 Stone was playing at open mic nights, sometimes Julia performed backing vocals – their first such gig, at the Coogee Bay Hotel, they performed "Tears". After playing split sets with each singing backing vocals to the other's material, in 2006, they formed a duo, Angus & Julia Stone.  In March that year the pair recorded their debut extended play, Chocolates and Cigarettes, which was released in August. Since then the group has released two EPs, two compilation albums and four studio albums.

[Refrain]

She said she don't like the rock & roll life

She says I drink too much, go to bed too late

She said I got no time for her anymore (Ahh)

Sit around too long, strumming my guitar

Telling her things I've never told her before

Guess it's just all I know, baby girl

[Verse 1]

Let's go on holidays

Ohhh, let's forget all the things we say

Maybe get an old, old car

Drive around the winding road

By the blue, blue sea

We can start life in an old library

Read some books

Just you and me, just you and me

Talking about where we gonna eat for supper time

Super feeling fine

Ohhh, sweet, sweet, sweetie love of mine

[Refrain]

Let's ride away on a wagon to the sunshine

(Baby, little baby, everything goin' be alright)

With the smoke in my hand, and her feeling fine

(Baby, little baby, everything goin' be alright)

Ohh, leave this, leave this whole world behind

(Baby, little baby, everything goin' be alright)

It all sounds pretty peachy to me, it sounds pretty fine

(Baby, little baby, everything goin' be alright)

[Verse 2]

Ohhh, you can live in a dream

Or you can live here, right now

Ohhh, I'm gonna sleep and I'm, I'm gonna dream away

Hello, how's your day?

Seems it's just the way the world's spinning 'round

If you get caught in the storm

Sometimes you don't make it home

We can pretend for a little while

Sing, goin' on

[Refrain]

She tell me she don't like the rock & roll lifestyle anymore

Ohhh she says I stay up too late

Ohhh strumming my guitar for the world

Telling her things, telling her things I never told her before

Ohhh, everything goin' be alright, baby girl

Hmmmmm, I just wanna see you

Hmm, smiling, girl

Hmmmmm, I just wanna see you

Hmm, sitting upon the hill

[Outro]
Baby, little baby

Everything goin' be alright

Baby, little baby

Everything goin' be alright

Baby, little baby

Everything goin' be alright

Baby, little baby.
