Help w/ lyrics.... "On The Beach"

Post by TJ »

I know, I know, not a very interesting topic, but whatever... Maybe someone can help: Does anyone know (or know where - like a "link"...) the lyrics to ***"On The Beach"*** by John Holt & The Paragons? Is there any "favorite" site that you may use, when you want to see the lyrics to a certain tune? Thanks in advance....

Hail

one of i favoutte tunes a dat, on the beach.just means alot to me.

ill try and remember them from the top of i head

(Intro)

Lets go an have some fun, on the beach where there's a party

Everyone will be there, on the beach where there's a party

Where gonna' have a ball, dancing an singing an whining an all...

Holding hands together an laughing and all.

Then we'll dance, Dance, DAnce, D-D-D-ANCE, ho, ho, ho

1 more box of hugs, says the man to the bartender

1 more box of hugs, says the man, i wont surrender

(No Singing)

(Humming of chorus)

Where gonna' have a ball, dancing an singing an whining an all...

Holding hands together an laughing and all.

Then we'll dance Dance DAnce D-D-D-ANCE, ho, ho, ho

1 more box of hugs, says the man to the bartender

1 more box of hugs, says the man, i wont surrender

1 more box of hugs,on the beach where theres a party

1 more box of hugs, says the man, on the beach where theres a party

(Repeated) (fade out)

I never understood what they say after 'one more box of..?'. I guessed it was a beer name or something.
What is a box of hugs, Trevor?

Not wanting to contradict you Ranking Trevor but I always thought it was "hops" (so yes it does mean beer)?
