Lyrics
Well it started out, at that lake,
Where we came with an idea to make our escape
So we gathered ourselves, and all the things that we had
We kissed off our women and we headed out in the van
Load it up, load it up we were ready to go
We were heading down 35
On our way to live, on our way to survive
And it was the fourth of July
On that long lost summer shore
Where we had to give it up, just to get a little more
It was the fourth of July and we had to rely
It was out of our reach on that long lost summer beach
Fourth of July we didn't care anymore
We got busted getting high just us against the world
And so we arrived on the beach at two a.m.
So we stayed up all night just to let things sink in
The sun was coming up and the waves were crashing down
So we waxed up our boards to catch our first round
Round it up, round it up we were ready to go
We were hitting up all the curls
All the locals were pissed off 'cause we'd stolen all the girls
And it was the fourth of July on that long lost summer shore
Where we had to give it up just to get a little more
Our heads were to the east as the storm was blowing in
And the waves were rising up as my van was sinking in
The swell were coming up creeping up on to the shore
Edging up past my tires getting closer to the door
But I said f*ck it man let's just get high, let's just load another bowl
Then the cops rolled up and said "We have got to go!"
