Ramones - Rockaway Beach Lyrics






Chewin' at a rhythm on my bubble gum
The sun is out, I want some
It's not hard, not far to reach
We can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach

Up on the roof, out on the street
Down in the playground the hot concrete
Bus ride is too slow
They blast out the disco on the radio

Rock Rock Rockaway Beach
Rock Rock Rockaway Beach
Rock Rock Rockaway Beach
We can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach [x2]

It's not hard, not far to reach
We can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach [x2]

[Repeat all]

  10. C.... S....

    I remember seeing these guys in 78, and the crowd pummelled them with beer & whiskey bottles etc to get them off the stage lol. They opened for Sabbath and was the Never Say Die tour. They should have never booked them together, and was a big mistake. I'd heard the Ramones before as l had some Puerto Rican friends that we're big fans of theirs, but didn't care for them myself. I can actually appreciate their music now and like this one, as well as a few others ironically lol

    C.... S....

    They received the same reception when they played with Aerosmith and ted Nugent and in the end, johnny flipped off the crowd and they cut the show short. It's only recently that people realise how great and important the ramones were.

  11. d.... ....

    Ramones é sensacional!!!

  12. R.... E....

    I thought it was 'Rock-a-way Bitch' LOL! TY for these songs. My favorite is the music from Pet Semetery. :P

    Hey, Ramones fans! One of Joey's favorite artists and influences (Marc Bolan & T.REX) is a nominee for this year's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

    Silbo rockabilly en mi pitagol

    En el Vitrasa hacia Samil
    hoy me voy a divertir.

    Voy a nadar y a bucear
    con mi patito no me puedo ahogar

  87. �.... �....

    Hello everyone! I'm a new Ramones fan. I know that Dee Dee did a lot of background vocals but somewhere around 0:56 I heard another guy. Is that Tommy?

    �.... �....

    It might be Joey's bro, Mickey Leigh, who did bv on the first record, or it might be the Paley bros. It could've been just about anyone in the studio with a throat though!
