Rating: 3 Stars3 Stars3 Stars
Words & Music: Sid Tepper/ Roy C. Bennett
Take off your shoes, put down your hair
Turn on the music and we'll get somewhere
Dance, dance, dance, til nose gets tan
We're gonna have us a ball on the beach
a-slicin' sand

Hug me a heap, swing me a lot
We got a lot of ocean if it gets too hot
O-o-o, o-o-o, baby, take my hand
We'll have some real rockin' fun in the sun
a-slicin' sand

Come baby, come, let's dig some holes
You'll find it's heaven with sand on you soles
Yeah!

Slide through to the left, slide to the right
Slash down the middle baby hold me tight
O-o-o, o-o-o, baby, hold my hand
We'll have some real rockin' fun in the sun
slicin' sand
Recorded: 1961/03/21, first released on Blue Hawaii

Not a great song, but a fun, rollicking, short track from the "Blue Hawaii" soundtrack. Elvis sounds like he is having fun (the outtakes where he says "too many whomps" is hysterical). Good for what it is, a chance for Elvis to dance and light up the screen with his charisma, charm and singing voice.

Another Tepper/Bennett classic. Were these guys great or what?
