Oh, when the sun goes down
and birds will crawl up on the roof.
And your shoes get so hot
you wish your tired feet were fireproof.

(Chorus)
Under the boardwalk,
down by the sea, yeah.
On a blanket with my baby
is where I'll be.

(Under the boardwalk)
Out of the sun
(Under the boardwalk)
We'll be having some fun
(Under the boardwalk)
People walking above
(Under the boardwalk)
We'll be falling in love
Under the boardwalk, boardwalk


In the park you hear
the happy sound of the carousel. (mm-hmm)
You can almost taste the hot dogs and
french fries they sell.

Chorus (2x)
