Verse 1: Cruisin' on a sand dune listenin' to the sea, Thinkin' Âbout the Gal who I thought belonged to me Then near my sand dune I hear a distant beat I threw my eyes at what looked like a bottle on the beach, A bottle on the beach, A bottle on the beach... Chorus: There was a bottle, a bottle a bottle on the beach The label told me open, I lost my sense of speech I had a funny feelin' that to open it was right It hit me with a rhythm that I listened to all night, listened to all night There was a bottle, a bottle, a bottle on the beach. Verse 2: Well when I finished listenin' I took the bottle home I thought about the money and I jumped right on the phone After talkin' to the press men for not so very long I went to fetch the bottle and I found that it was gone, Found that it was gone, Found that it was gone... Chorus: There was a bottle... etc... Lead: Verse 3: After seeing my Psychiatrist, I went down to the bar Ordered me a bottle and I took it to my car Drivin' to the sand dune I heard the beat again It was the bottle I was drinkin' from I'll never be the same Never be the same Never be the same... Chorus: There was a bottle... etc...
