don't back down
beach boys
the girls dig the way the guys get all wiped out
with their feet in the air you can hear 'em shout
you gotta be a little nuts
but show 'em now who's got guts
don't back down from that wave
with their feet full of tar and their hair full of sand
the boys know the surf like the palm of their hand
they grit their teeth they don't back down
you gotta be a little nuts
but show 'em now who's got guts
don't back down from that wave
when a twenty-footer sneaks up like a ton of lead
and the crest comes along and slaps 'em upside the head
they grit their teeth they don't back down
you gotta be a little nuts
but show 'em now who's got guts
don't back down from that wave
