Still Surfin'

(album: Summer In Paradise - 1992)

He used to ride the sidewalks in a landlocked town
A solitary surfer still he got around
He had his favorite spots now
Where the best rides could be found

With posters on his wall from "Surfer" magazine
His room looked like a shrine to the surfing scene
Go to Hawaii out of high school was his big time college dream
(That's where the girls are)

Did you ever wonder what happened to surfer Joe
He up and took a trawler down to Mexico
With a pretty senorita we both used to know

You can see him catch a wave in the morning light
And sometimes you can find him on his board at night
A silouette on water as the sun dips outta sight

He's still surfing
(Still surfin')
He's still surfing
(Still surfin')

You'll catch him on a wave on his way to class
Then be back there after school on his daylight glass
He's still surfing
(Still surfin')
He's still surfing
(Still surfin')

Surfers always love them summer days
With a board in the water rolling with the waves
He's still surfing

He's always been a surfer since the early days
Spending the summer searching for that perfect wave
He and his surfing senorita never seem to age

He doesn't do a whole lot with his law degree
They thought about a major oceanography
But he does a lot of thinking 'bout how to save the sea
(That's where the waves are)

Things up north were getting kinda out of hand
So he got a break to see the ride on the sand
With his little mama seated in a surfer's never never land

You can see him catch a wave in the morning light
And sometimes you can find him on his board at night
A silouette on water as the sun dips outta sight

He's still surfing
(Still surfin')
He's still surfing
(Still surfin')

You'll catch him on a wave on his way to class
Then be back there after school on his daylight glass

He's still surfing
(Still surfin')
He's still surfing
(Still surfin')

Surfers always love them summer days
With a board in the water rolling with the waves
He's still surfing

In the mornin light he still surfing
On his board at night he's still surfing
In the summer days he's still surfing
Rolling with the waves he's still surfing
