I Ve Got Sand In My Shoes lyrics

I`ve Got Sand In My Shoes
The Drifters
Peaked at # 33 on 10/24/64
An obvious follow up to their `Under The Boardwalk` (peaked 8/22/64), which, in
itself, referred to the prior `Up On the Roof` (peaked 2/9/63)
Written by Artie Resnick and Kenny Young

Oh, the boardwalk`s deserted
There`s nobody down by the sho-o-o-o-ore
And the ferris wheel ride isn`t turning around any m-o-ore-ore-ore
The heat wave and the crowds are just old new-ooh-ews
But I`ve still got some sand in my shoes

(Sand in my shoes)
Brings mem`ries of the salty air
(Sand in my shoes)
Whoa-uh-oh-oh the blanket that we used to share
How we fell in love down by the sea-ee
Come back to me (back to me, back to me) with the sand in my shoes

Whoa, oh
When the water was cold
You would tremble and hold me so ti-i-i-i-ight
And we`d sit on the beach just to wait for the stars to come out at night
The heat wave and the crowds are just old new-ooh-ews
But I`ve still got some sand in my shoes

(Sand in my shoes)
Oh, brings mem`ries of the salty air
(Sand in my shoes)
Whoa-oh-uh-oh the blanket that we used to share
How we fell in love down by the sea-ee
Come back to me (back to me, back to me) with the sand in my shoes

(Sand in my shoes)
Whoa-uh-oh-oh
(Sand in my shoes)
Whoa, la, la, la, la, uh-whoa
(Sand in my shoes)

FADE
Whoa-uh-oh-oh
