[Intro]
Remember the time, when young men and young women
All went out to the beach to enjoy themselves
These were the good old days
When peoples went out to the beach
[Chorus]
Soul surfing in the U.S.A
Soul surfing in the U.S.A
Soul surfing in the U.S.A
We're going out to the beach today
[Verse 1]
I know the world can't understand
The things that we like to do
My own people take a look at me
And say "hey, what's wrong with you?"
We know that it's hard to relate
To the things we like to do for fun
But we're doing a whole new thing
So we're gonna take a chance
And get out in the sun, we're going...
[Chorus]
Soul surfing in the U.S.A
Soul surfing in the U.S.A
Soul surfing in the U.S.A
We're going out to the beach today
[Verse 2]
When I think about what we're doing
I get a real strange sensation
Soul surfing could change the way
That people think all across the nation
I'll bet that Jan & Dean didn't know
What they were headed for
But Dick gave us our surfboards now
And it looks like we're gonna get
A whole lot more, and we'll be...
[Chorus]
Soul surfing in the U.S.A
Soul surfing in the U.S.A
Soul surfing in the U.S.A
We're going out to the beach today
[Verse 3]
Stevie & Kim & Kevin & Victor & Schooie & Roach
They're all going out to the beach today
Let's go!
All the people in Harlem City, Detroit, and L.A. too
They're gonna all start surfing soon
'Cause it's a real hip thing to do
I don't think we ought to waste our time
Changing what we have to say
So c'mon, everybody, get in tune
To the things we could be doing today
Then we'll all be...
[Chorus/outro]
Soul surfing in the U.S.A
Soul surfing in the U.S.A
Soul surfing in the U.S.A
We're going out to the beach today
You know we're going to be...
Soul surfing in the U.S.A
Soul surfing in the U.S.A
Soul surfing in the U.S.A
We're going out to the beach today
We're gonna be...
Soul surfing in the U.S.A
Soul surfing in the U.S.A
Soul surfing in the U.S.A
We're going out to the beach today
