about

just a kid on the beach.
what a life!

lyrics

a boy in blue shorts runs down the beach
does a summersault his name is Louie

a woman on a swing under the trees
watches an old man swimming in the sea

la la la

and down in the shacks where the poor people live
the boy in blue shorts gives his mom a kiss

be careful Louie don't swim out too far
if you got lost in the sea it would break your mother's heart

"and Louie sings" la la la


a girl with green eyes lies on the beach
she likes that silly boy playing in the sea

o' Louie pretty Louie look at me
but Louie smiles his blue eyes are only for the sea


a boy in blue shorts runs down the beach
does a summersault his name is Louie

a woman on a swing under the trees
watches an old man swimming in the sea
