Verse 1: Cruisin' on a sand dune listenin' to the sea,
Thinkin' 'bout 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........
