Every year, the middle of June
We crammed into that Astro van
Tighter than a can of sardines
And we went to the beach
We fought in the back
And dad got mad
And mama rolled the windows down
"Y'all smell the salt of the beach?"
Well, it was double beds
With a kitchenette
Bedspreads of sea-foam green
It was sunburns and taking turns
On boogie boards we'd bring
Even if we spent every single cent to stay across the street
We went to the beach
We mowed a few yards
I filled a coffee can with some Benjamins
Just a couple of friends
Barely seventeen
We went to the beach
And in the middle of March
Before real life start, partied so hard
We could hardly remember a thing
It was PBRs and tiki bars
Don't take my fake I.D
It was cigarettes, girls we just met
Making out on lifeguard seats
And those polaroids of me and the boys is all the proof I need
We went to the beach, oh yeah
Girl, don't you hate to leave
It's been one hell of a week
It was a vow, to you do I, "I do"
Babe, can you believe?
It was brand new tans
Brown-golden bands
Of sand all in the sheets
If I know you and me, we only get one of these
We went to the beach
And we went to the beach
We went to the beach
We went to the beach
We went to the beach Every year, the middle of June We crammed into that Astro van Tighter than a can of sardines And we went to the beach We fought in the back And dad got mad And mama rolled the windows down "Y'all smell the salt of the beach?" Well, it was double beds With a kitchenette Bedspreads of sea-foam green It was sunburns and taking turns On boogie boards we'd bring Even if we spent every single cent to stay across the street We went to the beach We mowed a few yards I filled a coffee can with some Benjamins Just a couple of friends Barely seventeen We went to the beach And in the middle of March Before real life start, partied so hard We could hardly remember a thing It was PBRs and tiki bars Don't take my fake I.D It was cigarettes, girls we just met Making out on lifeguard seats And those polaroids of me and the boys is all the proof I need We went to the beach, oh yeah Girl, don't you hate to leave It's been one hell of a week It was a vow, to you do I, "I do" Babe, can you believe?
