Another Summer in the Books at Santa Cruz, CA and Beach Boardwalk, Giant Dipper – Historical Gems Live On in Jewel of West Coast Seaside Towns
*
Oh, the boardwalk’s deserted, there’s nobody down by the shore…
And the Ferris wheel ride isn’t turning around any more
The heat wave and the crowds are just old news
But I’ve still got some sand in my shoes
Sand in my shoes Brings memories of the salty air Sand in my shoes Whoa uh oh oh, the blanket that we used to share How we fell in love down by the sea Comes back to me with the sand in my shoes (Back to me, back to me)
Whoa, oh When the water was cold, you would tremble and hold me so tight And we’d sit on the beach just to wait for the stars to come out at night The heat wave and the crowds are just old news But I’ve still got some sand in my shoes
Sand in my shoes Oh, brings memories of the salty air (Sand in my shoes) Whoa oh uh oh, the blanket that we used to share How we fell in love down by the sea Comes back to me with the sand in my shoes
Back to me, back to me Sand in my shoes Whoa uh oh oh Sand in my shoes Whoa, la, la, la, la, uh whoa Sand in my shoes Whoa uh oh oh Sand in my shoes
The Santa Cruz Boardwalk at Santa Cruz,CA is the last remaining full scale Seaside boardwalk on the West Coast and one of the few such remaining amusement parks of its kind anywhere.
