Lyrics

Surfin'

[Intro]

Surfing is the only life, the only way for me

Now surf, surf

[Verse 1]

I woke up this morning, turned on my radio (Ooh, surf, surf)

I was checking out the surfing scene to see where I would go (Ooh, surf, surf)

When the DJ tells me that the surf is fine (Ooh, surf, surf)

That's when I know my babe and I will have a good time (Ooh, surf, surf, surf, surf)

[Chorus]

Surfin', surfin' (Bow, bow, bom, bom)

Surfin', surfin' (Bom, bom, bom, bom)

Surfin', surfin' (Bom, bom, bom, bom)

Surfin', surfin' (Bom, bom, bom)

Surfing is the only life, the only way for me

Now surf, surf with me

[Verse 2]

Well, from the early morning to the middle of the night (Ooh, surf, surf)

Any time the surfing up the time is right (Ooh, surf, surf)

And when the surf is down, to take its place (Ooh, surf, surf)

We'll do the "Surfer's Stomp," 'cause it's the latest dance craze (Ooh, surf, surf, surf, surf)

[Chorus]

Surfin', surfin' (Bow, bow, bom, bom)

Surfin', surfin' (Bom, bom, bom, bom)

Surfin', surfin' (Bom, bom, bom, bom)

Surfin', surfin' (Bom, bom, bom)

Surfing is the only life, the only way for me

Now surf, surf with me

[Verse 3]

Well, now the dawn is breaking and we really oughta go (Ooh, surf, surf)

But we'll be back and early boys searching better know (Ooh, surf, surf)

Yeah, my surfin' knots are rising and my board is losing wax (Ooh, surf, surf)

But that won't stop me, baby, 'cause you know I'm coming back (Ooh, surf, surf, surf, surf)

[Chorus]

Surfin', surfin' (Bow, bow, bom, bom)

Surfin', surfin' (Bom, bom, bom, bom)

Surfin', surfin' (Bom, bom, bom, bom)

Surfin', surfin' (Bom, bom, bom)

[Outro]

Surfing is the only life, the only way for me

Now, come on, pretty baby, and surf with me (Yeah)

Come on, pretty baby, and surf with me (Yeah)

Come on, pretty baby, and surf with me (Yeah)

Come on, pretty baby, and surf with me
