This song was written by Brian Wilson & Mike Love about teaching beginners how to surf properly & telling them how to catch a wave. They express just how fun it is.
[Chorus]
Catch a wave and you're sitting on top of the world
[Verse 1]
Don't be afraid to try the greatest sport around
(Catch a wave, catch a wave)
(Everybody tries it once)
Those who don't just have to put it down
You paddle out, turn around and raise
And baby that's all there is to the coastline craze
[Chorus]
You gotta catch a wave and you're sittin' on top of the world
[Verse 2]
Not just a fad because it's been going on so long
(Catch a wave, catch a wave)
(All the surfers going strong)
They said it wouldn't last too long
They'll eat their words with a fork and spoon and watch them
They'll hit the road and all be surfing soon
[Chorus]
And when they catch a wave they'll be sittin' on top of the world
Catch a wave and you're sitting on top of the world
[Verse 3]
So take a lesson from a top-notch surfer boy
(Catch a wave, catch a wave)
(Get yourself a big board)
But don't you treat it like a toy
Just get away from the shady turf
And baby go catch some rays on the sunny surf
[Chorus]
And when you catch a wave you'll be sittin on top of the world
(Way up high, up on top of the world)
Catch a wave and you'll be sittin' on top of the world
(Way up high, up on top of the world)
Catch a wave and you'll..
