Surfer Joe (failed - reindex) The Surfaris
Surfer Joe:The Surfaris.
Top of the charts in 1962 & '63.
B-side of the record was the instrumental,
'Wipe Out.'
[G]Down in Doheny where the surfers all go,
there's a [C]big bleach blondie, named Surfer Joe.
He's [G]got a green surfboard and a Woody to match,
and when he's [D]ridin' the freeway's,
man, is he hard to [G]catch.
CHORUS:
[G]Surfer Joe..Now, look at him go..[C]whoa..whoa..whoa,
Surfer, Surfer, [G]Surfer Joe-o-o..Go man go-o-o.
[D]Oh-oh, oh, oh, [C]oh, Surfer [G]Joe.[D]
[G]I saw him one day flyin' down the road,
with [C]tenty-six surfboards and a hundred pound load.
I [G]knew where he was headin,' tryin' to reach..
the [D]playground of the surfers, Doheny [G]Beach.
CHORUS:
[G]He went down to Huntington Beach one week,
for the [C]annual surfer's convention meet.
[G]Hangin' five and walkin' the nose and when
the [D]meet was over, the trophy was [G]Joe's.
CHORUS:
[G]Surfer Joe joined Uncle Sam's Marines today,
they [C]stationed him at Pendleton, not far away.
they [G]cut off his big blonde locks, I'm told,
and when he [D]went on manoeuvers, Joe caught [G]cold.
CHORUS:
[G]Now, no, that didn't stop him, or keep him away.
When the [C]surf was up, he still had his day.
They [G]caught him at the Trestle, down by the sea,
and [D]now, poor Joe is doin' K.[G]P.
CHORUS:
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
