lyrics

SALT WATER TAFFY
(Purol/Kern/Ratts)

now is the time to shut the store down
drive a little bit over and a little bit south
where the shops sell raybans and wings to go
and the ladies wear sandals and banana boat

'cause life is sticky sweet:
salt water taffy

we crash into town with our boards and beer
where the outside world can't touch us here
gonna buy me a necklace with a shark tooth now
and sip on margaritas 'til the sun goes down

'cause life's salty and sweet
both smooth and sandy
and every girl i see's
salt water taffy

meet under the shark
and then we'll hit the cork
and catch the late bus home

when it's all said and done we'll be lying in the sun

back down to sharky's where the waves are great
there's shrimp and bloody marys at the surf 'n spray
tell this hectic life that i'm all done
i'll be lying in the sun

we'll bury our hassles in sand castles then
just watch them wash away

'cause life's salty and sweet
both hard and happy
and every girl i see's
salt water taffy

drop by for a mai tai on the balcony
we'll watch the summer sun setting into a sea
of salt water, yeah
salt water, yeah
salt water taffy.
