As I sit by the sea Drink tequila by the shade of a tree There's a seniorita sat on my knee Sprinkling sand all over me I've got sand on my shoes I've lost everything that I'm gonna lose I've got nothing but the sun and the moon And the sand that's on the beach I am happy though my shoes are tattered and torn Because the sea is so shiney Ba ba-um-ba Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba-um-ba I've got sand on my shoes Thought I was civilized Till I saw the sea and I realized That the city life was just not for me Left my troubles behind me Ba ba-um-ba Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba-um-ba I've got sand on my shoes I've got nothing else that I'm gonna lose I've got nothing but the sun and the moon And that's plenty for me I've got sand on my shoes I've got sand on my shoes I've got sand on my shoes Sand on my shoes Ba ba ba ba-um-ba Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba-um-ba
