Jimmy Buffett
Oldest Surfer on the Beach
[Verse 1]
The sun's dropping out of the picture, soon be time to move
It hasn't been a real big day, but I don't have a thing to prove
I've still got the old nose rider, I still surf old style
I'll go out beyond the breakers, sit alone and rest a while

[Chorus]
There's nothing that I wanna do
No place I'm trying to reach
Only time is now more precious to
The oldest surfer on the beach

[Refrain]
The oldest surfer on the beach

[Verse 2]
I stopped searching for perfection many waves ago
What really matters is the here and now and that's about all I know
Gonna catch me a big ol' roller, sun setting on the sea
Riding in on her glassy shoulder, the water going gray like me

[Chorus]
There's nothing that I wanna do
No place I'm trying to reach
Only time is now more precious to
The oldest surfer on the beach
[Refrain]
The oldest surfer on the beach
The oldest surfer on the beach
The oldest surfer on the beach
