Surfer Joe:The Surfaris.
Top of the charts in 1962 & '63.
B-side of the record was the instrumental,
'Wipe Out.'
#1. (Capo 1st fret for original.)
FDown in Doheny where the surfers all go,
there's a Fbig bleach blondie, named Surfer Joe.
He's Fgot a green surfboard and a Woody to match,
and when he's Gridin' the freeway's,
man, is he hard to Fcatch.
CHORUS:
FSurfer Joe..Now, look at him go..Fwhoa..whoa..whoa,
Surfer, Surfer, FSurfer Joe-o-o..Go man go-o-o.
GOh-oh, oh, oh, Foh, Surfer FJoe.G
#2.
FI saw him one day flyin' down the road,
with Ftenty-six surfboards and a hundred pound load.
I Fknew where he was headin,' tryin' to reach..
the Gplayground of the surfers, Doheny FBeach.
CHORUS:
#3.
FHe went down to Huntington Beach one week,
for the Fannual surfer's convention meet.
FHangin' five and walkin' the nose and when
the Gmeet was over, the trophy was FJoe's.
CHORUS:
#4.
FSurfer Joe joined Uncle Sam's Marines today,
they Fstationed him at Pendleton, not far away.
they Fcut off his big blonde locks, I'm told,
and when he Gwent on manoeuvers, Joe caught Fcold.
CHORUS:
#5.
FNow, no, that didn't stop him, or keep him away.
When the Fsurf was up, he still had his day.
They Fcaught him at the Trestle, down by the sea,
and Gnow, poor Joe is doin' K.FP.
CHORUS:
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
