The Paragons - On the Beach (1967) Treasure Isle
Lyrics: Let's go have some fun
On the beach where there is a party
Everyone will be there,
On the beach where there is a party
We're gonna' have a ball
Dancing an' singing an' winding and all..
Holding hands together an' laughing and all
Then we'll dance, dance, dance, d-d-d-ance, ho, ho, ho
One more box of (H)apps
Says the man to the bartender
One more box of (H)apps
Says the man, I won't surrender
(..)
We're gonna' have a ball
Dancing an' singing an' winding and all..
Holding hands together an' laughing and all
Then we'll dance, dance, dance, d-d-d-ance, ho, ho, ho
One more box of (H)apps
Says the man to the bartender
One more box of (H)apps
Says the man, I won't surrender
One more box of (H)apps
On the beach where there is a party
One more box of (H)apps
Says the man, on the beach where there is a party
Note:
The word they sing could be \"Happs\" which appears to have been a kind of beer in Jamaica. It could also be \"Apps\" and refer to Appleton rum.
