Lyrics
Summer in the sand

He's a drummer in the band

Droppin' the beat

She's a DJ at the boardwalk

A smile and a tan

And her sandals in her hand

Rockin' the shades

You could almost see their eyes lock

What could be better

Than a party in the weather

With the both of us together

In the backdrop?

Everything was right

And the day turned into night

With the music and the lights

That's when we stop

Oh

Heard it on the radio

Sing it out loud

Oh

Comin' down to see your show

Oh, oh, oh

(Everybody now)

Heard it on the radio

(Oh, oh, oh)

Oh, oh, oh

(Everybody now)

Comin' down to see your show

(Oh, oh, oh)

Play it back, play it back

One time, yeah

Heard it on the radio

Board and a wet suit

On the day we met

You said "I think this dude's catchin' a wave"

Shorts and a jet ski

All the other summer things

Kickin' it in the sun all day

We only got time for each other

And we only got time for the summer

Everybody knows

If you gotta let it go

Taking the chance

Makin' it go your way

Oh

Heard it on the radio

Sing it out loud

Oh

Comin' down to see your show

Oh, oh, oh

(Everybody now)

Heard it on the radio

(Oh, oh, oh)

Oh, oh, oh

(Everybody now)

Comin' down to see your show

(Oh, oh, oh)

Play it back, play it back

One time, yeah

Heard it on the radio

Listen to the story

'Bout the party, 'bout the glory

'Bout the summer that would raise the bar

Anyone would tell you

It was chill, it was stellar

The best time we’ve had so far

Everyone together

Always goin' "Never better"

And the good times go on, and on, and on

Never will forget it

Doesn't matter where we’re headed

I'll remember when I hear our song

What?!

Oh

Heard it on the radio

Oh

Comin' down to see your show

Oh, oh, oh

(Everybody now)

Heard it on the radio

(Oh, oh, oh)

Oh, oh, oh

(Everybody now)

Comin' down to see your show

Whoa, oh, oh

I heard it on the radio

Whoa, oh, oh

Heard it on the radio

Oh, oh, oh

(Everybody now)

Heard it on the radio

(Oh, oh, oh)

Oh, oh, oh

(Everybody now)

Comin' down to see your show

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Play it back, play it back

One time, yeah
