By the sea, by the sea, by the beautiful sea....

I woke up this morning with the strangest lyrics in my head, but I guess my brain was busy working out my post while I was sleeping!  Thank you, brain, I appreciate your help!  I am really showing my age with this question, but how many of you remember Sing Along With Mitch and following the red bouncing ball?  I can remember singing this song as a little girl in front of our black and white television console.

Joe and Jane were always together.

Said Joe to Jane "I love Summer weather.

So let's go to that beautiful sea,

Follow along,

Just say you're with me!"

Chatham Lighthouse and Chatham Beach, Cape Cod
October 2013

Hah!  There are even red bouncing balls in my picture!!

Of course this sign made us a little hesitant to venture into the water....

but I was brave enough to stick my feet in...a little

By the sea, by the sea, by the beautiful sea,
You and I, you and I, oh! how happy we'll be

I love to be beside your side,
Beside the sea, beside the seaside,

By the beautiful sea.

 

Joe and Jane were always together.

Said Joe to Jane "I love Summer weather.

So let's go to that beautiful sea,

Follow along,

Just say you're with me!"

Any thing that Joe would suggest to her,

Jane would always think it was best for her.

So he'd get his Ford.

Holler "All aboard--

Gee I want to be."

By the sea, by the sea, by the beautiful sea,

You and I, you and I, 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.

Have a wonderful Wednesday!
