Beach Baby

Beach Baby Lyrics The First Class From The Album The First Class (1974) [Verse 1] Do you remember back in old L.A. (Oh-oh-oh) When everybody drove a Chevrolet? (Oh-oh-oh) Whatever happened to the boy next door? The sun-tanned, crew-cut, all-American male [Verse 2] Remember dancing at the high school hop? (Oh-oh-oh) The dress I ruined with the soda pop? (Oh-oh-oh) I didn't recognize the girl next door The beat up sneakers and the ponytail [Chorus] Beach baby, beach baby, give me your hand Give me something that I can remember Just like before, we can walk by the shore in the moonlight Beach baby, beach baby, there on the sand From July to the end of September Surfin' was fun, we'd be out in the sun every day [Bridge] Mmm, I never thought that it would end (Ooh, ooh) Mmm, and I was everybody's friend (Ooh, ooh) Long hot days, blue sea haze Jukebox plays, but now it's fading away [Verse 3] We couldn't wait for graduation day (Oh-oh, no) We took the car and drove to San José (Oh-oh-oh) That's where you told me that you'd wear my ring I guess you don't remember anything [Chorus] Beach baby, beach baby, give me your hand Give me something that I can remember Just like before, we can walk by the shore in the moonlight Beach baby, beach baby, there on the sand From July to the end of September Surfin' was fun, we'd be out in the sun every day [Outro] Beach baby, beach baby, beach baby, beach baby Beach baby, beach baby, do-do, do-do, do-do Beach baby, beach baby, beach baby, beach baby Beach baby, beach baby, do-do, do-do, do-do Beach baby, beach baby, beach baby, beach baby Beach baby, beach baby, do-do, do-do, do-do Beach baby, beach baby, beach baby, beach baby Beach baby, beach baby, do-do, do-do, do-do Beach baby, beach baby, beach baby, beach baby Beach baby, beach baby, do-do, do-do, do-do Beach baby, beach baby, beach baby, beach baby Beach baby, beach baby, do-do, do-do, do-do Beach baby, beach baby, beach baby, beach baby Beach baby, beach baby, do-do, do-do, do-do Beach baby, beach baby, beach baby, beach baby...
