[Intro] Sun come risin', paintin' gold on the sea, Got my guitar and a pocket full of free, Flip-flops tappin' to the ocean's roll, Today's the day to let the good times stroll. [Verse 1] Woke up early with the sunshine bright, Palm trees swayin' in the morning light, Grabbed my board and a smile to wear, Salt in the wind and freedom in the air. Met a drummer man beneath the pier, Said, "Brother, slow down, there's no rush here," Shared a little smoke while the seagulls flew, The waves kept singin' like they always do. [Chorus] Oh, I'm driftin' where the cool tides roll, Sea breeze blowin' through my hippie soul, Skankin' in the sand to the reggae beat, Sunshine rhythm movin' through my feet. Oh, let the worries wash away today, Like a seashell floatin' in the bay, High on life beneath the endless sky, Just me and the ocean gettin' by. [Verse 2] Walked the shoreline where the foam danced white, Every grain of sand felt just right, Clouds were paintin' stories way up high, While pelicans were glidin' through the sky. Passed a bonfire ring left from the night, Still smelled sweet in the morning light, Took another puff and watched the blue, The whole world sparkled with a brighter hue. [Chorus] Oh, I'm driftin' where the cool tides roll, Sea breeze blowin' through my hippie soul, Skankin' in the sand to the reggae beat, Sunshine rhythm movin' through my feet. Oh, let the worries wash away today, Like a seashell floatin' in the bay, High on life beneath the endless sky, Just me and the ocean gettin' by. [Verse 3] As the sunset spilled its amber flame, Every wave and every gull had a name, Island colors faded soft and slow, While the moon prepared its silver glow. Friends gathered 'round with a laugh and song, And the stars above all sang along, One more stroll before the day was through, The beach said goodbye and I answered too. [Chorus] Oh, I'm driftin' where the cool tides roll, Sea breeze blowin' through my hippie soul, Skankin' in the sand to the reggae beat, Sunshine rhythm movin' through my feet. Oh, let the worries wash away today, Like a seashell floatin' in the bay, High on life beneath the endless sky, Just me and the ocean gettin' by. [Outro] Moonlight shinin' on the gentle foam, Every wave whisperin', "You're home," One love, one tide, one endless goal, Leave a little sand inside your soul.
