Today's song is in honor of Brian Wilson, co-founder of the Beach Boys, who passed away yesterday at the age of 82. I grew up listening to the Beach Boys, as they were one of my dad's favorites. I love their style and their music is always uplifting and fun to listen to. So with all of that said, Surfin' USA is the song I'm picking. They had so many great songs, but this one has really just always stuck with me and is always the first song I think about when I hear anything about the Beach Boys. Brian, you will be hugely missed and thank you for all the good music over the decades!

[Verse 1]
If everybody had an ocean
Across the U.S.A
Then everybody'd be surfin'
Like Californ-i-a
You'd see them wearing their baggies
Huarache sandals too
A bushy bushy blond hairdo
Surfin' U.S.A

[Chorus]
You'd catch 'em surfin' at Del Mar
(Inside, outside, U.S.A.)
Ventura County line
(Inside, outside, U.S.A.)
Santa Cruz and Trestles
(Inside, outside, U.S.A.)
Australia's Narrabeen
(Inside, outside, U.S.A.)
All over Manhattan
(Inside, outside, U.S.A.)
And down Doheny Way
(Inside, outside)
Everybody's gone surfin'
Surfin' U.S.A
