- Oh, the boardwalk's deserted
- There's nobody down by the sho-o-o-o-ore
- And the ferris wheel ride isn't turning around any m-o-ore-ore-ore
- The heat wave and the crowds are just old new-ooh-ews
- But I've still got some sand in my shoes
-
- (Sand in my shoes)
- Brings mem'ries 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-ee
- Come back to me (back to me, back to me) with the sand in my shoes

- Whoa, oh
- When the water was cold
- You would tremble and hold me so ti-i-i-i-ight
- 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 new-ooh-ews
- But I've still got some sand in my shoes
-
- (Sand in my shoes)
- Oh, brings mem'ries 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-ee
- Come back to me (back to me, back to me) with the sand in my shoes
-
- (Sand in my shoes)
- Whoa-uh-oh-oh
- (Sand in my shoes)
- Whoa, la, la, la, la, uh-whoa
- (Sand in my shoes)

- FADE
- Whoa-uh-oh-oh
