Under the Boardwalk by The Drifters

Oh when the sun beats down and burns the tar up on the roof
And your shoes get so hot you wish your tired feet were fire proof
Under the boardwalk, down by the sea, yeah
On a blanket with my baby is where I'll be
out of the sun
(Under the boardwalk) we'll be havin' some fun
(Under the boardwalk) people walking above
(Under the boardwalk) we'll be falling in love
Under the boardwalk, boardwalk
In the park you hear the happy sound of a carousel
Mm-mm, 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 is where I'll be
out of the sun
(Under the boardwalk) we'll be havin' some fun
(Under the boardwalk) people walking above
(Under the boardwalk) we'll be falling in love
Under the boardwalk, boardwalk
Ooh, under the boardwalk, down by the sea, yeah
On a blanket with my baby is where I'll be

Now this song has some good memories

This was one of the first songs Berv and I sang with that good ol' Casio keyboard of mine

In the basement of Osprey

The beginnings of the Fresnels

This song has a happy feel to it

~Maybe because it's about having sex under the boardwalk

Who knows?

But it sure is a fun one to sing along to

This one made it on to many a mix tape

A beautiful song. Filled with many happy memories. Reminds me of summer and innocent bliss. I played it for my kids recently and about halfway through the song they screamed when is this song going to be over! They wanted to listen to Katy perry. There is no goodness left in the world. None.
