Oh, the sun beats down
And burns the tar
up on 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
Is where Ill be
From the park you hear
Happy sounds
from the carousel
You can almost taste
the hot dogs
And French fries they sell
Under the boardwalk
Down by the sea
Yeah
- On a blanket with my baby
- On a blanket with my baby
Is where Ill be
Under the boardwalk
Out of the sun
Under the boardwalk
Well be having some fun
Under the boardwalk
Walk
People walking above
Under the boardwalk
Well be falling in love
- Under the boardwalk
- Under the boardwalk

We tried everything to get you a flight

but it's impossible. There are no
planes landing in San Francisco.
- There's a fog.
- What do you mean, there are
no flights landing in San Francisco?
- Is this the modern world or what?
- That's right, but even
in the modern world...
planes don't land in
San Francisco when it's foggy.
Uh, Linda, why dont you check about
the status of the fog lifting?
- Fogs lift. Please check again.
for us to make that call.
They said they would call me
when the fog lifted.
You call them.

I checked the wipers.
They're all right.

up l-5, so be careful.
- Okay. Thanks.
I'm a big fan, CC.
Oh, when the sun

the two of us
We've got the world

And when the world
is through with us
We've got

You've got to win a little
Lose a little
And always have the blues
a little
That's the story of
That's the glory of love
My mama told me

Love
Oh, great.
