Lyrics

  1. When the sun beats down
    And melts the tar upon the roof
    And your shoes get so hot
    You wish your tired feet were fireproof
    Under the boardwalk, down by the sea
    On a blanket with my baby’s where I’ll be

Chorus
Under the boardwalk, out of the sun
Under the boardwalk, havin’ some fun
Under the boardwalk, people walkin’ above
Under the boardwalk, we’ll be makin’ love
Under the boardwalk

  1. From the park you hear
    The happy sound of a carousel
    And you can almost taste
    The hot dogs and French fries they sell
    Under the boardwalk, down by the sea
    On a blanket with my baby’s where I’ll be
