  • I can think of nothing better
    Than dancing on the beach
    See a girl, you can go and get her
    Your troubles will be out of reach

    On the beach
    You can dance to a rock 'n' roll
    On the beach
    Hear the Bossa Nova, played with soul
    On the beach
    You can dance, twist and shout
    On the beach
    Everybody hear me come on out
    On the beach
    Come on, everybody, stomp your feet)
    On the beach
    You can dance with anyone you meet)
    'Cause your troubles are out of reach
    On the beach

    Umm, this is fun
    Umm, won't you tell me
    I'm the one you're gonna dance with
    Yeah, Bossa Nova!

    Umm, this is fun
    Umm, now I know
    I'm the one you're gonna dance with
    Yeah, twist and shout now!

    You can do the dance that you want to
    With anyone that you meet
    And if the Bossa Nova doesn't get you
    The twist will have you on you feet

    On the beach
    You can dance to a rock 'n' roll
    On the beach
    Hear the Bossa Nova, played with soul
    On the beach
    You can dance, twist and shout
    On the beach
    Everybody hear me come on out
    On the beach
    Come on, everybody, stomp your feet
    On the beach
    You can dance with anyone you meet
    'Cause your troubles are out of reach
