By The Beautiful Sea
…Gosh, I want to be: By the sea, by the sea, by the beautiful sea! You and me, you and me, oh how happy we’ll be! When each wave comes a-rolling in We will duck or swim, And we’ll float and fool around the water. Over and under, and then up for air, Pa is rich, Ma is rich, so now what do we care? I love to be beside your side, beside the sea, Beside the seaside, by the beautiful sea!
From the musical “For Me and My Gal” Harold Atteridge / Harry Carroll; 1914
