[Verse 1]
Papa Jack
little blue crab king
Maryland bay boy
with a sideways swing
Kimberly Michelle
sand on her knees
calling from the shoreline
“come crawl to me”
[Chorus]
Papa Jack and Kimberly Michelle
pinchers up high, she gives him shell scratchies (oh yeah)
tiny tracks in the wet brown sand
best friends, claw and hand
Papa Jack and Kimberly Michelle
she sings him songs, he soaks up all the love
from the water to the wishing well
Papa Jack and Kimberly Michelle
[Verse 2]
He rides in her pocket
on a towel throne
they map big dreams
on her cracked phone
tide pool treasure
secret cave lagoon
every salty giggle
under one big moon
[Chorus]
Papa Jack and Kimberly Michelle
pinchers up high, she gives him shell scratchies (hey!)
tiny tracks in the wet brown sand
best friends, claw and hand
Papa Jack and Kimberly Michelle
she sings him songs, he soaks up all the love
from the water to the wishing well
Papa Jack and Kimberly Michelle
[Bridge]
When the waves get rough
and the sky turns gray
she cups him close
whispers, “we’ll be okay”
little heart, big heart
beating in time
a girl and her crab
on the same shoreline
[Chorus]
Papa Jack and Kimberly Michelle
pinchers up high, she gives him shell scratchies (oh yeah)
tiny tracks in the wet brown sand
best friends, claw and hand
Papa Jack and Kimberly Michelle
she sings him songs, he soaks up all the love
from the water to the wishing well
Papa Jack and Kimberly Michelle
