By The Sea

I once knew a man
He lived by the sea
He had a woman
And a banana tree

Her skin was brown
From all the sun
She did'nt care
Just having fun

Living by the ocean
That's where I'll be
Just catching waves
And being free

They had a child
So young and bold
His only dream
Not to get old

When he was born
The ocean rose
To tell the world
I suppose

Living by the ocean
That's where I'll be
Just catching waves
And being free

His board was blue
Just like the sky
It was a joy
To see him ride

His only dream
His only thought
Was his love
That he had lost

Living by the ocean
That's where I'll be
Just catching waves
And being free
