    Just saw The Catalinas 3 weeks ago in Georgetown, SC. The crowd went crazy when they did this. And Johnny Barker was there jamming on the keyboard’s with a slight smile of satisfaction that people still get excited about his anthem to summer and Beach Music. Can’t wait to see the Catalinas again

      I'll probably listen to Carolina Beach music until the day I die. A friend of mine, Greg Elkins, used to play for the _Coastline Band_ and now is with the _Blackwater Band._ They're very popular.
      I really envy him... it's like he gets paid to never have to grow up😃
      It's sad though to go to Myrtle Beach and see all the rotten changes they made... the old Pavilion is just heartbreaking 😪

    I remember this past winter
    I told myself to settle down
    And I seriously
    tried to do just that
    Here I am with everything
    So beautiful and green
    And I don't believe I've
    Told myself what I mean
    Maybe someday soon
    I can feel this way
    year 'round
    But it's summertime
    And I don't want to
    stay in this town, no
    I want to sit there in the sand,
    (sit there in the sand)
    watch those golden tans go walking by
    I know it isn't fair
    (I know it isn't fair)
    'cause you might really care
    But it's
    diff'rent now,
    The summertime's calling me.
    (Instrumental)
    I want to sit there in the sand,
    (sit there in the sand)
    watch those golden tans go walking by
    I know it isn't fair
    (I know it isn't fair)
    'cause you might really care
    But it's
    diff'rent now,
    The summertime's calling me.
    I don't think I'm ready
    To develop a routine
    When it's cold and
    snow's on the ground
    It's a diff'rent scene.
    Maybe someday soon
    I can feel this way
    year 'round
    But it's summertime
    And I don't want to
    stay in this town, no
    I want to sit there in the sand,
    (sit there in the sand)
    watch those golden tans go walking by
    I know it isn't fair
    (I know it isn't fair)
    'cause you might really care

    I want to sit there in the sand,
