lyrics

Down by the coast on an old stretch of sand
Waiting for the summer to warm the waters again
A few dumb luck kids thought that they were pirates
In search of any girl that could stand to have a beer beside them

They weren't looking for trouble
When it found them they never did mind
Out on a muggy summer night
Warm as Carolina in the middle of July

So damn hot they'd be sweating in the shade
Serving sweet tea to earn a little honest pay
To beat the heat they'd stay out on the water
Laughing at themselves and the cops that never caught them

They weren't looking for trouble
When it found them they never did mind
Out on a muggy summer night
Warm as Carolina in the middle of July
