lyrics

Gonna be the best, gotta be the best summer ever

Goin’ to the beach on a hot summer day with a clear blue ocean view
Find a nice sandy spot where the sun’s shinnin’ hot, relaxin’ on a blanket for two
Got no care in the world with my favorite girl, no tellin’ what we’re gonna do
Turn the radio on to the song of the summer, yeah, I’m so stoked…that I’m with you

Gonna be the best summer ever, and I think you know that I’ve seen a few
Best summer ever, yeah, ya know for sure you’re gonna feel it too

Jumpin’ into the tide, surfer girl by my side, we’ll even ride a wave or two
Cruisin’ along, got the Astronauts on, and they sound….even better with you

Gonna be the best summer ever, and I think you know that I’ve seen a few
Best summer ever, yeah, ya know for sure you’re gonna feel it too

Gonna be the best, gotta be the best summer ever

Thinkin’ ‘bout all the past, summer times, it’s a blast,
with all the fun fun fun things we do
And when we turn it on, yeah, the song of the summer, y’know I’m still stoked…that I’m with you!

Gonna be the best summer ever, and I think you know that I’ve seen a few
Best summer ever, yeah, ya know for sure you’re gonna feel it too

Best summer ever, best summer ever
Best summer ever, best summer ever
Best summer ever, best summer ever
Best summer ever, best summer ever
