Lyrics

the sun and fog are playing hide and seek
the wind is low and I can't see the beach

Mr. Wave Man, take me home
Mr. Wave Man, take me home

gonna ride all the way home
don't care how far I have to roam

friends are near, friends from far away
they lend me chear, more than I can say

Mr. Wave Man, take me home
Mr. Wave Man, take me home

take a ride down that salty road
you don't know how much a soul can hold

Mr. Wave Man, take me home
Mr. Wave Man, take me home

the fog is free, free for today
no life for those who refuse to play

the sun is gray, gray as the sea
shine on me, make me silvery

Mr. Wave Man, take me home
Mr. Wave Man, take me home
