Song Lyrics

Summer nights by the old marina in a seaside town south of Mendocino
We were college bound kids getting all untied
We'd sleep all day and be up all night
Spent our time numbin' our minds on Nirvana and Fireball
Ain't it funny how time flies and those nights get harder and harder to recall

Oh I miss, I miss sweet Monterrey fast boats and hot lazy days
You up on my shoulders with the fireworks raining down
We couldn't wait to get out of there
But now I know what I had back there
In Monterrey
Yeah, yeah, uh huh

Police lights flashin' on the girls of summer
Dumping beer on a beach man what a bummer
We were Frat house camping, we were beer bong kings
Didn't have twenty dollars but we had everything
Football by truck light, guitars and fist fights, talking round fires till dawn
Smell of sunrise coffee and holdin' sweet Maggie as she nodded off in my arms

Oh I miss, I miss sweet Monterrey fast boats and hot lazy days
You up on my shoulders with the fireworks raining down
We couldn't wait to get out of there
And now I know what I had back there
In Monterrey
Yeah, yeah, uh huh

Oh I miss, I miss sweet Monterrey fast boats and hot lazy days
You up on my shoulders with the fireworks raining down
We couldn't wait to get out of there
And now I know what I had back there
In Monterrey
Yeah yeah, uh huh

Monterrey (Monterrey)
Yeah yeah (yeah yeah), uh huh
Monterrey (Monterrey)
