Chewing out a rhythm on my bubble gum

The sun is out and I want some.
D
It's not hard, not far to reach
E
We can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach.

Up on the roof, out on the street
Down in the playground the hot concrete
Busride is too slow
They blast out the disco on the radio

   A
   Rock Rock Rockaway Beach
   D
   Rock Rock Rockaway Beach
   A
   Rock Rock Rockaway Beach
   E
   We can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach  (2x)
