Verse 1]
I was sittin’ there sippin’ my sweet tea
When a beautiful girl walked up to me
She said, “You look like you’re lonely, need some company?”
I said, “I don’t mind, it’s been a hell of a week”
I was lookin’ at her, she was lookin’ at me
Her pretty red lips were sippin’ that sweet tea
Asked if she wanted to leave this old town
Head down South, chase the sun until it goes down?
[Pre-Chorus]
Her beautiful smile lit up like the sky
On Fourth of July
Then leaned in close and gave this reply:
[Chorus]
“Boy, let’s get outta here, just you and me
I wanna feel the ocean breeze, wild and free
Never been down south, never seen that beach
But I’ve got dreams that are beggin’ to be reached”
So we packed the truck, rolled the windows low
With nothin’ but time and a tank full of hope
Her hair blowin’ wild in the summer heat
Had me grinnin’ like a fool in the front seat
[Verse 2]
Radio playin’ that old George Strait
Sun sinkin’ down, yeah, we couldn’t wait
Stopped for some peaches off that two-lane road
Laughin’ and dancin’ with nowhere to go
We hit the coast just past midnight
Moonlight dancin’ in her beautiful eyes
She kicked off her boots, ran into the tide
And that’s the moment I knew she was mine
[Bridge]
Now every sunset takes me back to that day,
When a sweet tea smile stole my heart away
Wasn’t just a trip, wasn’t just a ride—
It was the start of forever, side by side
[Final Chorus]
Yeah, we’re outta here, just her and me
Living on love and that ocean breeze
She’s been down south, toes in the sand
And now I’m the lucky one holdin’ her hand
Still ridin’ that road with the windows down
Two hearts beatin’ to a beach town…………….sound
Her laugh in the air, her kiss so sweet
A love story born in the front seat
[Outro]
So if you’re sittin’ there sippin’ sweet tea
And a girl walks up, just wait and see…
Sometimes the best things come unplanned—
Like love and the ocean and holding herrrrr, hand.
