DIXIE CUP OF SAND

(John D. Loudermilk)
« © '64 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
I'm taking home a dixie cup of sand
A couple of sea shelves
My diary and some kodak colored pictures of the one
Who's breaking my heart

I'm closing up my suitcase for the summer
I'll take this year's souvenirs and start
With my dixie cup of sand
A couple of sea shelves and my broken heart

Why must it always turn out like this
I've got plenty sand and I've got plenty shelves
But I don't have anyone to hug and kiss
Hug and kiss

So I'm taking home another cup of sand
Another couple of shelves
My diary and some kodak colored pictures of the one
Who's breaking my heart
A dixie cup of sand and my broken heart
(My broken heart)

UNDER THE BOARDWALK

(Kenny Young - Artie Resnick)
« © '64 Alley Music, BMI / Trio Music, BMI »
Oh when the sun beats down and burns the tar upon the roof
And your shoes get so hot you wish your tired feet were fire proof
(Under the board walk down by the sea)
On a blanket with my baby's just where I'll be

(Under the boardwalk) out of the sun
(Under the boardwalk) we'll be having some fun
(Under the boardwalk) people walking above
(Under the boardwalk) we'll be falling in love
(Under the boardwalk boardwalk)

From the park you hear the happy sound of a carousel
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

(Under the boardwalk) out of the sun...
[ horns ] (Under the board walk) down by the sea
On a blanket with my baby's just where I'll be

(Under the boardwalk) out of the sun...

THAT WARM SUMMER NIGHT

(Jerry Fuller - William C. Sylva)
« © '61 Jat Music, BMI / Tree Publishing, BMI »
The April walk through fields and farms
And when I held you in my arms
But most of all I still recall that warm summer night

The autumn hayride the frosty freeze
The fading color of the trees
But through the fall I'll still recall that warm summer night

Through all my life I can't forget that moonlit picnic by the sea
We left the others far behind and then you gave your love to me

The winter sleighride through falling snow
A kiss beneath the mistletoe
Through cold December I still remember that warm summer night
Through cold December I still remember that warm summer night

PLEASE DON'T TALK TO THE LIFEGUARD

(Sylvia Dee - Gregory Goehring)
« © '65 Anne Rachel Music, ASCAP »
Please don't talk to the lifeguard please don't talk to the lifeguard
Please don't talk to the lifeguard please don't talk to the lifeguard
Says the sign where I go to swim oh oh

How can I get to know him how can I get to show him
How can I get to show him how can I get to show him
That I am so much in love with him

Dark and handsome golden tan six feet tall man oh man
Gotta make him mine all mine wish they'd take away that sign

Please don't talk to the lifeguard please don't talk to the lifeguard
Guess I'll swim way out into the sea
And then I'll meet him when he rescues me

(Please don't talk to the lifeguard please don't talk to the lifeguard)

Dark and handsome golden tan...
Please don't talk to the lifeguard...
Please don't talk to the lifeguard...

SUMMER PLACE

(Mack Discant - Max Steiner)
« © '60 WB Music, ASCAP »
There's a summer place
Where it may rain or storm yet I'm safe and warm
For within that summer place
Your arms reach out to me and my heart is free from all care
For it knows there are no gloomy skies when seen through the eyes
Of those who are blessed with love

And the secret of a summer place is that it's anywhere
Anywhere when two people share
All their hopes all their dreams all their love

And the secret of a summer place...

SUMMER SUNSHINE

(James Hendricks - Ronald Long)
« © '65 Herb Montei Music, BMI / Kim Fowley Music, BMI »
Love to feel the summer sunshine love to hear the summer rain
Warm red kisses every one is mine now that you are back again

Glad the winter's finally over don't know where the sun has been
I can sleep at night cause baby I know that's startin' all all over again

Well I know the hurtin's over I know the waitin's through
It's been lonely in the meantime I know it's been worth it all waitin' for you

Love to feel the summer sunshine...
Well I know the hurtin's over...
Love to feel the summer sunshine...

SUMMERTIME

(Durose Heywood - George Gershwin)
« © '58 WB Music, ASCAP »
(Summertime summertime) don't cry (summertime summertime)

Summertime and the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin' and the cotton is high
Your daddy's rich and your mama's good lookin'
So hush little baby don't you cry

(Summertime summertime) don't cry (summertime summertime)

One of those mornin's youre goinna rise up singin'
Then you'll spread your wings and you'll take to the sky
But till that mornin' there's a nothing can harm you
With daddy and mama standing by

(Summertime summertime) don't cry (summertime summertime)

REMEMBER (WALKIN' IN THE SAND)

(George Francis Morton)
« © '64 Carbert Music, BMI / Tender Tunes, BMI / Screen Gems Music, BMI »
Seems like the other day my baby went away
He went away cross the sea
It's been two years or so since I saw my baby go
And then this letter came for me

It said that we were through he found somebody new
Let me think let me think what can I do
Oh no oh no oh no no no no no
(Rremember) walkin' in the sand (remember) walkin' hand in hand
(Remember) the night was so exciting (remember) smile was so inviting
(Remember) then he touched my cheek (remember) with his fingertips
Softly softly we'd meet with our lips

Whatever happened to the boy that I once knew
The boy who said he'd be true
Oh what will happen to the life I gave to you
What will I do with it now

(Rremember) walkin' in the sand...

SUMMER SONG

(Keith Noble - David Stuart - Clive Richard Metcalfe)
« © '65 Unart Catalog, BMI »
Trees swayin' in the summer breeze
Showin' up their silver leaves as we walk by
Soft kisses on a summer day
Laughin' all our cares away just you and I
Sweet sleepy warmth of summer nights
Gazin' at the distant light neath the starry sky

They say that all good things must end someday
Autumn leaves must fall
But don't you know that it hurts me so to say goodbye to you
Wish you didn't have to go no no no no
And when the rain beats against my windowpane
I'll think of summer days again and dream of you

They say that all good things must end someday...

SUNGLASSES

(John D. Loudermilk)
« © '66 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
I got my swimcap and comb and my paperback book but I'm almost through
I got my lipstick and mirror and my suntan lotion and my cam'ra too
I got my beach bag full of all the necessary items for a day in the sun
And of course it wouldn't be like me if I didn't bring along

Some sunglasses hmm to hide behind
Sunglasses mhm to cry behind
Sunglasses mhm to die behind
Dear while I lie and cry and sigh and hurt and watch you while you flirt
With your somebody new makin' me blue

I brought my towel and transistor radio so I could tell the time
Cause the Top Forty records and the weather sports will get you off of my mind
I'll rent an umbrella from the lifeguard fella with the dreamy eyes
And you can bet I couldn't forget my old standby's

My sunglasses hmm to hide behind...
Sunglasses sunglasses sunglasses

THAT SUMMER SUNSET

(Sandra Rhodes)
« © '65 High Harmony Music, BMI »
The summer sun doesn't shine as bright as it used to shine
But its warming rays make me love the days while you're still mine
The last sweet moments of summer aren't quite over yet
But what bothers me is I hate to see that summer sunset

Cause when autumn leaves start turning brown and the grass begins to die
I'll look for your love but it won't be found cause September means goodbye

So I'll hold you close while the summer sun's still shining down
And make memories for those lonely days when you're not around
I'll have lots to think of and your sweet love I'll never forget
Though it has to be still I hate to see that summer sunset

(Summer sunset)
Though it has to be still I hate to see that summer sunset
(Summer sunset)
Though it has to be still I hate to see that summer sunset

SINGIN' IN THE SUMMER SUN

(Cindy Walker)
« © '65 High Harmony Music, BMI »
Singin' in the summer sun singin' songs of love
In a picture postcard world under warm blue skies above
Building castles in the sand running barefoot hand in hand
By the shining shining sea deep as the love we pledge faithfully

Singin' with the phonegraph by the driftwood fire
Cryin' when we said goodbye under misty summer stars
Summer's gone like all my dreams that faded one by one
Still it's sweet remembering singing in the summer sun
[ clarinet ] Summer's gone like all my dreams that faded one by one
Still it's sweet remembering singing in the summer sun
Summer's gone like all my dreams that faded one by one
Still it's sweet remembering singing in the summer sun
