Sand in my shoes. Wind in my hair. Watch the frigate birds soar through the air. It’s a life that demands my attention. Says it all!

Sand In My Shoes
© bud elkin 2015

Sand in my shoes. Wind in my hair. Watch the frigate birds soar through the air.
It’s a life that demands my attention.
All I need is my guitar in hand, to play beach songs, and dance in the sand
Singing songs, and getting sand in my shoes
[CHORUS]
I can’t say that it’s perfect, but I can’t say that it’s that bad
There’s one thing I can say, about it all, that it beats the old life that I had
Life of leisure has its costs, but I’m willing to pay my bills
As long as I can keep, sand in my shoes, and I can keep on chasing the thrills

[BRIDGE]
Sometimes I think I should do something else,
but it doesn’t seem right, to give up this fun.
All the things I have done in this life
They don’t add up to a good beach run

[CHORUS]
I can’t say that it’s perfect, but I can’t say that it’s that bad
But one thing I can say, about it all, that it beats the old life that I had
Life of leisure has its costs, but I’m willing to pay my bills
As long as I can keep, sand in my shoes, and I can keep on chasing the thrills.
[VERSE dbl.]
Swimming all day. Fun in the sun. It’s a vacation that never ends.
It’s a life that demands my attention.
Maybe your right, irresponsible, to play all day, and dance in the sand.
Living life, and getting sand in my shoes

Sand in my hair. Sand in my shoes. Sand in my shorts, but I don’t care.
It’s a life that demands my attention.
All that I need, is a shower and shave, and I’ll be ready to do it again.
I’ll play beach songs, and dance in the sand all day

[CHORUS out]
I can’t say it’s perfect, but I can’t say that it’s that bad
But one thing I can say, about it all, that it beats the old life that I had
Life of leisure has its costs, but I’m willing to pay my bills
As long as I can keep, sand in my shoes, and I can keep on chasing the thrills
