Santana Body Surfing
Took a walk, down by the ocean
I was alone, nothing on my mind
As I stood there
I saw the devotion
That the surf had with the shore
Suddenly
I felt this emotion
Of the sea pulling me
Big Kahuna, tide was high
I began body surfing for my life
Ecstasy, sky and the sea
Embracing me
Golden sun on my face
Giving life to me
Unafraid I let go
Trusting in the deep blue sea
We became one with each other
Watching the tide as it drifts away
Big Kahuna, tide was high
I began body surfing for my life
I spoke to me daddy, said to me
"Son, you got to go find a job
And bring some money into the family
For your mommy and me"
I say, "Daddy, me want to go to the seashore
And body surf all day long"
Me no wanna work
Me wanna play
Me wanna body surf all day
Me told him
Me wanna go body surfing
Me tell him
Me tell him
No, me wanna go
