I wrote this song living in San Marcos and carousing on the San Marcos river down by Texas State University during the end of the spring college semester in May.
lyrics
Cherry Beach in the springtime has one more week to go
It's all local anesthesia from there, so get it while you can
Then wait until next year
Wash the poison off your head, starting over, backwards, again
Sing a little song to the summertime kids that are getting out of school
Riding their bikes and looking so cool, hanging out in the park with the local girls
On the riverbank, in the afternoon.... until September comes back around.... and it's still hot that time of year.... and the big kids come back to school for the Cherry Beach holiday
Cherry Beach holiday
Candy, candy, candy- don't forget to brush your teeth, Mom says not everyone is playing it safe, so look out for number one
The sand is hot
It feels divine between your toes
Your eyes are full and anything goes
When it gets a bit too much, the river can cool you down for a while
Reinvigorate your beautiful smile
Taste the air and breathe sun, until the evening comes around and the foxes all hunt all over downtown
Tomorrow we'll go to the lost and found for the Chery Beach holiday
Cherry Beach holiday
