Ohn Locke believed there was a social contract between a government and its people. What were the details of this contract?

Citizens should agree to obey their government as long as the government protected their natural rights.
Citizens should not have to obey the laws of a government and should only be concerned with their individual rights.
The government holds absolute authority and should determine all of the rights of its citizens.
Kings, queens, and other royals must obey the same laws as the citizens of a country.
