Inflatable pool full of dad's hot air I was three years old Splashin' everywhere And so began my love affair With water On a river bank With all my friends A big old rope tied to a limb And your a big old wuss If you don't jump in The water Yeah when that summer sun starts to beatin' down And you don't know what to do Grab your swimming trunks Ice up that old Igloo Drive until the map turns blue Daytona Beach on spring break Eighteen girls up on stage White t-shirts about to be sprayed With water Oh let'er go boys Yeah when that summer sun starts to beatin' down And you don't know what to do Just go and grab someone you wanna see in a bathing suit And drive until the map turns blue You can stay right there When the daylight's gone Play truth or dare And it won't take long 'Fore you and her got nothin' on But water All you really need this time of year Is a pair of shades And ice cold beer And a place to sit somewhere near Water
