Catch a wave and you're sitting on top of the world
  
   Don't be afraid to try the greatest sport around
   Everybody tries it once
   Those who don't just have to put it down
   You paddle out turn around and raise
   And baby that's all there is to the coastline craze
   You gotta catch a wave and you're sittin' on top of the world
  
   Not just a fad cause it's been going on so long
   All the surfers going strong
   They said it wouldn't last too long
   They'll eat their words with a fork and spoon
   And watch 'em they'll hit the road and all be surfin' soon
   And when they catch a wave they'll be sittin' on top of the world
  
   Catch a wave and your sittin' on top of the world
  
   So take a lesson from a top-notch surfer boy
   Every Saturday boy
   But don't treat it like a toy
   Just get away from the shady turf
   And baby go catch some rays on the sunny surf
   And when you catch a wave you'll be sittin on top of the world
  
   Catch a wave and you'll be sittin' on top of the world
   Catch a wave and you'll be sittin' on top of the world
   Catch a wave and you'll be sittin' on top of the world
