Hey, That’s My Wave Songtext
von Jimmy Buffett

It used to be so easy
Life was so well-defined
Walk to the beach and ride the ocean
Any place, any time

The ocean′s always been my mother
Salt water is the perfect cure
But now my home breaks on a website
That's got me thinkin′ Ecuador

Hey, that's my wave
Surfin' is my life
Hey, that′s my wave
Takes away the strife

When that summer swell starts rollin′
Pods of people droppin' in
Dirt lot′s full of new pickups and Beamers
I want my mornings back again


Hey, that's my wave
Surfin′ is my life
(The thrill I crave)
Hey, that's my wave
Takes away the strife
(Let′s all behave)

They're all paddlin' on the inside
Floating sideways on the board
Takin′ selfies in a white wash
Nobody works anymore

Hey, that′s my wave
(Man, are you thinkin' what I′m thinkin'?)
Hey, that′s my wave
(Yeah, a block)
Hey, that's my wave
(I′ll meet you at the Shagawam, we'll talk about it)
(Hey dude, that's my wave)

I think it′s time for a safari
Find a new spot far away
Leave the clowns and crowds behind me
Fightin′ for rides the whole damn day


Hey, that's your wave
I′m outta here
(The thrill I crave)
Hey, that's my wave
I′m on the plane to Cussin' Island
(Let′s all behave)

Hey, that's your wave
Hey, Jimmy, that's my wave, ha-ha
(The thrill I crave) Hah, shock and rock
Hey, that′s my wave
(Let′s all behave)
Good luck

Enjoy it, dudes
