Surfin' U.S.S.R. Composer(s): William Martin Performer(s): Ray Stevens
We got a Soviet sub she's a '79 She's got nuclear reactorand she runs real fine We're loyal to the party and the party line But a sailor's gotta have a little fun sometime
We were out in the Pacific where it's nice and deep When our Sonar operator fell asleep Then a terrible crash waking every hand And we woke up stuck in the California sand
Now here we are Surfin' U.S.S.R. Malibu, U.S.A. With all the movie stars Yah, I'm gettin' kinda tan Gettin' good on guitar Come on honey be my little com' ma sar We don't want no nuclear fight We just wanna have a beach party tonight Whooooooooooooo! (Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo Yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo) Whooooooooooooo! (Yo yo yo yo yo yo Yo yo yo yo yo yo)
Thought the girls were bewitchin' back in Moscow 'Til we saw the little hunneys here in Malibu One look through the prescope and we all flipped It was a mutiny aboard the People's Ship
Now here we are Surfin' U.S.S.R. Malibu, U.S.A. With all the movie stars Yah, I'm gettin' kinda tan Gettin' good on guitar Come on honey be my little com' ma sar We don't want no nuclear fight We just wanna have a beach party tonight Whooooooooooooo!

Down in Doheny where the surfers all go There's a big bleach blondie, named Surfer Joe He's got a green surfboard and a Woody to match And when he's ridin' the freeway's Man, is he hard to catch
Surfer Joe Now, look at him go-o-o-o-o-o Surfer, Surfer, Surfer Joe-o-o Go man go-o-o Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, Surfer Joe
I saw him one day flyin' down the road With tenty-six surfboards And a hundred pound load I knew where he was headin' Tryin' to reach the playground Of the surfer's, Doheny Beach
Surfer Joe Now, look at him go-o-o-o-o-o Surfer, Surfer, Surfer Joe-o-o Go man go-o-o Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, Surfer Joe
He went down to Huntington Beach one week For the annual surfer's convention meet Hangin' five and walkin' the nose And when the meet was over The trophy was Joe's
Surfer Joe Now, look at him go-o-o-o-o-o Surfer, Surfer, Surfer Joe-o-o Go man go-o-o Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, Surfer Joe
Okay let's go!
Surfer Joe joined Uncle Sam's Marines today They stationed him at Pendleton, not far away They cut off his big blonde locks, I'm told And when he went on maneuvers, Joe caught cold
Surfer Joe Now, look at him go-o-o-o-o-o Surfer, Surfer, Surfer Joe-o-o Go man go-o-o Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, Surfer Joe
Now, no, that didn't stop him Or keep him away When the surf was up He still had his day They caught him at the trestle Down by the sea And now, poor Joe is doin' KP
Surfer Joe Now, look at him go-o-o-o-o-o Surfer, Surfer, Surfer Joe-o-o Go man go-o-o Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, Surfer Joe

en sjoklatjes at ...
O, zou dat niet zalig zijn?
O, zo zalig gezellig zitte op m'n eigen stoel totdat 'k 't

en voor me zorgen wou ...
