Concert Intro/Surfin' U.S.A.-Live 1964 Lyrics

Time: 3:16
Chuck Berry/Brian Wilson (uncredited lyricist)

Let's hear it
Look who came to sing
Louder
Are you ready for em?
Well let 'em know you're welcoming them come on
They can't hear you
Let's introduce 'em now the fabulous Beach Boys

We had a song out
We had a song out last summer that number one
Six or seven weeks in a row here in Sacramento
Now that's good
And it goes like this

If ev'rybody had an ocean across the U.S.A.,
Then ev'rybody'd be surfin' like Californ-I-A.
You'd see 'em wearin' their baggies. Huarachi sandals, too.
A bushy bushy blonde hairdo. Surfin' U.S.A.

You'll catch 'em surfin' at Del Mar. Ventura County Line.
Santa Cruz and Trestles. Australia's Narabine.
All over Manhattan, and down Doheny way.
Ev'rybody's gone surfin'. Surfin' U.S.A.

We'll all be plannin' out a route we're gonna take real soon.
We're waxin' down our surfboards. We can't wait for June.
We'll all be gone for the summer. We're on safari to stay.
Tell the teacher we're surfin'. Surfin' U.S.A.

At Haggarty's and Swami's. Pacific Palisades.
San Onofre and Sunset. Redondo Beach, L.A.
All over La Jolla, and Waimea Bay.
Ev'rybody's gone surfin'. Surfin' U.S.A.

Everybody's gone surfin'
Surfin' U.S.A.

Everybody's gone surfin'
Surfin' U.S.A
