Verse 1

In Hawaii there's a place known as Waimea Bay

Where the best surfer s in the world come to stay

And ride the wild s urf, they come to try

To conquer those wav es some thirty feet high

Chorus

Ride, ride, ride the wild surf

Ride, ride, ride the wild surf

Ride, ride, ride the wild surf

Gotta take that one last ride

[key changes to A]

Verse 2

Surf fever brings 'em he re to meet the test

And hangin' 'round the beach you'll see the best

They're waxed up and ready, just a-waitin' for

The surf to build up on the northern shore

Chorus [in A]:

Ride, ride, ride the wild surf

Ride, ride, ride the wild surf

Ride, ride, ride the wild surf

Gotta take that one last ride

Bridge

Lined up and waitin' for that next big set outside

Nothin' can stop it 'cause you

Just g otta ride, ride, ride, ride, ride

Verse 3

The heavies at the Pipeline are OK

But they can't match the savage surf at Waimea Bay

It takes a lot of skill and courage unknown

To catch a last wave and ride it in alone

Chorus

Ride, ride, ride the wild surf

Ride, ride, ride the wild surf

Ride, ride, ride the wild surf

Gotta take that one last

[key changes to Bb]

Gotta take that one la st ride

Chorus [in Bb]:

Ride, ride, ride the wild surf

Ride, ride, ride the wild surf

Ride, ride, ride the wild surf
