come play with me in sand and surf
the water is divine
we’ll eat some lunch a grape or two
you can have some wine

the beach is fun you will see
it has but one small hitch
for those around who walk the shore
don’t wear not but a stitch

as gasp of air is that i hear
over the telephone
“no cloth’s are worn when on the beach
i guess you’ll go alone”

i say “ don’t worry, no one cares
if you do not join in,
such sit and smile as all walk by
being naked is not a sin”

there’s oil for the parts of you
shoulders, arms and feet
sunblock thirty to protect
your buttoucks and your teet

as you now know i am not shy
the body that God gave me
does have a tan yes every inch
from toes to my pinky

if comes a day you change your mind
and wish a savage glow
just pack a bag and leave the suit
my truck and off we’ll go
