Oh the sun beats down and melts the tar up on the roof
And your shoes get so hot you wish your tired feet were fire-proof
Under the boardwalk down by the sea
On a blanket with my baby ... is where I'll be

From a park you hear the happy sounds from a carousel
You can almost taste the hotdogs and french fries they sell
Under the boardwalk down by the sea
On a blanket with my baby ... is where I'll be

Under the boardwalk out of the sun
Under the boardwalk we'll be having some fun
Under the boardwalk people walking above
Under the boardwalk we'll be falling in love
Under the board-walk board-walk

Under the boardwalk down by the sea
On a blanket with my baby ... is where I'll be

Under the boardwalk out of the sun
Under the boardwalk we'll be having some fun
Under the boardwalk people walking above
Under the boardwalk we'll be falling in love

這首歌是由Kenny Young 和 Arthur Resnick所寫,1964年The Drifters所灌錄。歌詞描寫一對戀人在海邊的某一個城巿約會,他們相約在晚上,在沙灘上的步道上,遠離別人的目光。這首歌的樂器用鋸琴、三角鐵及小提琴,歌曲進行很不尋常的從大調轉到小調,曲子的開頭用參考The Drifters很紅的一首歌up on the roof,表現屋頂的溫暖轉換到另類的約會地點沙灘步道。

這首曲子本來預定要在1964年5月21日錄製,但他們的主唱Rudy Lewis在前一天晚上因為吸毒過量而過世了,最後由他們的前團員也是前主唱Johnny Moore,完成這次的錄音。
