Just a beach song, a simple beach song

Sand and Sea and Sun

A cheap folding chair, crisp ocean air

Not a care in the world, not one

Girls barely dressed, cold beer in the chest

I leave the world behind

I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna lose this state of mind

Wave are crashing, cresting, splashing

To the rhythm of the sea

I sit here baking, drinking, wasting

There’s no where I need to be

No watch, no cell, just the sea and the shells

As I leave the world behind

I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna lose this state of mind

I find my peace on the beach by the water

Just west of old Tampa Bay

Sail boats grace the horizon

Hell, I could watch them all day

It's getting late, I haven't ate

I'll stumble to Crabby Bills

Maybe some snow crab or pile of stone crab

with shrimp, hot off the grill

One more beer, god I love it here

Where I can leave the world behind

I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna lose this state of mind

I find my peace on the beach by the water

Just west of old Tampa Bay

Sail boats grace the horizon

Hell, I could watch them all day

Just a beach song, a simple beach song

I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna lose this state of mind

No don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna lose this state of mind
