Open my eyes to an early sunrise Clear blue skies so it's time to check the tide Grab my board then I'm headed out the door If you need to find me I'll be chillin' at the shore Sand in my sheets but I still fell asleep Dreamin' about tonight and the sunset on the beach I close my eyes, she's everything I see On the shoreline just my girl and me Cruisin' along listenin' to the stereo This has got to be the greatest feeling that I know Falling in love, falling for that special girl This has got to be the best feeling in the world Sand in my sheets but I still fell asleep Dreamin' about tonight and the sunset on the beach I close my eyes, she's everything I see On the shoreline just my girl and me Take it Nate... Well it makes no sense at all how the living is so easy But the parking is so hard in my own backyard And all bets are off if you're coming up from out of town Get your greeting with the beat down, beat down Lucky for me when I wake in the dawn Grab my ukulele and I step on the lawn Hurry it up 'til I'm down on the beach Skip to my step with a reggae stylie and a Pacific Ocean air and Catalina is coming in so clear And tomorrow is going to be the same Tomorrow is going to be the same Tomorrow tomorrow is another day Well today if you're waiting for something to change Tomorrow is going to be the same Tomorrow is going to be the same Sand in my sheets but I still fell asleep Dreamin' about tonight and the sunset on the beach I close my eyes, she's everything I see On the shoreline just my girl and me Sand in my sheets but I still fell asleep On the shoreline just my girl and me

Yeah I'm up at Rudy's, headed to Malarky's If I get too desperate, catch my face at Sharkeez I'm the new Sugar Ray but a little less gay They love me on the beach side all the way to the bay I used to surf at Blackies 'til it got too crowded Over by the jetty they got that shit surrounded There's a lot of phonies claiming locals only They say "Hey Nate Frogg!" but you don't really know me Why can't we all get along Board that is Spending money on tryin' to be cool and belong 'Til you can't afford what is Cuz ya know it's kind of funny how I spend my money Livin' on the beach where the sun is so sunny But if you stop by I won't even be home Cuz I'm working at my job all day long Out with the old and in with the Newport Down on the beach yeah you know what we're lookin' for Out with the old and in with the Newport Down on the beach yeah you know now you know Pump! Pump! Pump Pump! Cruisin' on the boardwalk, Yeah I got my bike lock If you hear a knock knock, open up it's Nate Frogg I know I'm kind of tardy, here to start the party Beer pong, RVCA shirt, bottle of Bicardi Shoutin' "Ribbit! Ribbit!" Yeah I know we get it Forget to pay the meter 50 dollar ticket Lighten up I lit it, brighten up I hit it Livin' on the beach you know I found a way and did it Newport Beach that's how we roll Ay! Listen to the music cuz it's bound to soothe your soul How much do you want it, pay the cover at the door Let's meet up tomorrow we can chill out at the shore like Out with the old and in with the Newport Down on the beach yeah you know what we're lookin' for Out with the old and in with the Newport Down on the beach yeah you know now you know Pump! Pump! Pump Pump! Sunny side tirade, lookin' like we got it made Sittin' in the shade and sippin' on my lemonade Cerveza or burrito, pass the Tapatio Stuffin' it so fast you think it's only a taquito And I'll never trade my sandals for sneakers Tubin' so much like I got scientific beakers Think I found the antidote somewhere in this song I wrote Sing the words and hold this note Hurry or we'll miss the boat Set sail! Out with the old and in with the Newport Down on the beach yeah you know what we're lookin' for Out with the old and in with the Newport Down on the beach yeah you know now you know Pump! Pump! Pump Pump! Yeeeeeaaaaah. Yeah. Ruff!

We got a world full of right and wrong But I prefer just writin' songs Kick back and just get along Just take it easy Never understood why all the time people gettin' caught up In the newest thing, guess they're lookin' for love Should've tried looking for someone instead of something And maybe you can tell me why People staring straight up to the heavens Want to get this thing right, live forever Alright, you better get started sometime this life We got a world full of right and wrong But I prefer just writin' songs Kick back and just get along Just take it easy Never understood why all the people at the bottom Lookin' up to the big egos on TV shows I know I prefer the non-fiction kind of life I think gettin' it right is the hardest part Maybe that's just why it's not the best place to start I think gettin' it right is the hardest part Maybe that's just why it's not a good place to start Maybe time is running out Maybe the only time we got is now I think the people that got it figured out Ain't very pleasing Already we've got a world full of right and wrong But I prefer just writin' songs Kick back and just get along Just take it easy easy oooo

My little beach fire is burnin' and the night is fallin' in I got smoke in my lungs, sunburn on my skin Tired enough to get crazy, crazy Dig a little deeper into the warming sand Constellations above, cerveza in hand Thirsty enough to get crazy And so I lift up a toast to the California coast Where the baddest and the best get crazy Where the people listen up all the beaches and the bums And the working men want to get lazy Shirt off my back, sun on my skin Fed up enough to Crack open a fresh one, but the law is coming near So we bury up the fire, stuff my backpack with beer O you got to break the rules if you want to break free I got the rangers and the rat race chasing after me But what without friends would the situation be When the going gets rough at least the chillin's easy So I lift up a toast to the California coast Where the baddest and the best get crazy Where the people listen up all the beaches and the bums And the working men want to get lazy Shirt off my back, sun on my skin They got no time to get lazy So I mapped out the coast line, searching every hiding place And I found a vacancy here in this open sea cave My little beach fire is burnin' and the night is falling in I got smoke in my lungs and hot sunburn on my skin So I lift up a toast to the California coast Where the baddest and the best get crazy Where the people listen up all the beaches and the bums And the working men want to get lazy Yeah I lift another toast to the California coast Where the surfers and the stoners get crazy Where the people listen up all the beaches and the bums And the working men want to get lazy Shirt off my back, sun on my skin They got no time to get lazy All the chicas get their freak on on the outside of town There's a little ex pat bar where they pump up the reggae sound Pump! If I was in your hometown It would be packed every morning, every evening, and every night Pump! If I was in your hometown I would be walkin' that direction, I'd be playing my acoustic guitar Pump! Best we listen up and listen up and take my advice The livin's so easy livin' by the sea side And I know you know I ain't got to lie Cuz I know you know you won't take my advice And so I lift another toast to the California coast Where the baddest and the best get crazy Where the people listen up all the beaches and the bums And the working men want to get lazy Yeah I lift another toast to the California coast Where the surfers and the stoners get lazy Every morning the commute is an easy thing to do Beach bound down PCH I got my board in the back, sun on my skin I got no time to get paid Yeah

We've been far across the ocean Went by car and boat and bus But so far I'm feelin' closer than we've ever been before Traveled all along the coastline to our little island cove All along this world keeps pushing on but we've been moving slow Settled in beside a beach fire, dug our feet deep in the sand Settlin' for city livin' is something I can't understand We've been up and down this coastline, we've seen all the big time lights Until now I never noticed how many stars are in the sky Someday we'll think about these days And if home is just a place then why are we only visiting The sun and the waves, the melodies we've made All the memories we maybe need to make again Yesterday the next cove over, swimmin' naked in the sea With a smile as bright as our tan lines, just my girl and me Through the wind and rain and thunder our little tent still stood As the morning broke and we awoke the storm had left for good We've been meeting all the locals, all the lobsters and the fish So we swam right up and puckered up to greet them with a kiss Someday we'll think about these days And if home is just a place then why are we only visiting The sun and the waves, the melodies we've made All the memories we maybe need to make them Oo maybe we could make them again We've been far across the ocean Went by car and boat and bus But so far I'm feelin' closer than we've ever been before

Taking a walk around town Daydreaming to the sounds Sun is setting in my head Riptide is pulling me to bed I wish I could fly and I could chase all the clouds away Break away and make into another sunny day The kind that makes you jump for joy out of your bed But we could toy around and lay around so lazy instead Like we we're dreamin' of palm trees in the wind I lay it back, I play it back Again and again, again and again, again and again Sail, sail away with me We'll leave our luxuries And throw them to the sea ayy And we with the rollin' tide Will wash our worries dry Anchored by my side ayy Follow me to the shore I've got what you're lookin' for We could share this shelter from the storm Palm frond, fire's on just to keep you warm Weather the storm whether or not you're all that I got And all I need and you're so much more, so much more Yeah yeah you're so much more, so much more Sail, sail away with me We'll leave our luxuries And throw them to the sea ayy And we with the rollin' tide Will wash our worries dry Anchored by my side ayy We, we can weather the storm Together we're something more Resting on the shore Sail, sail away with me We'll leave our luxuries And throw them to the sea ayy And we with the rollin' tide Will wash our worries dry Anchored by my side ayy We, we can weather the storm Whether or not you're all that I got All I need and so much more So much more, so much more Yeah yeah you're so much more, so much more So much more, so much more, Yeah yeah you're so much more, so much more
