This instantly energetic and charismatic song tells the story of a fun beach house holiday, each descriptive verse has you wishing they were there. Manic elements appear as the song develops and you can’t help bopping along to the beat and fun guitar riffs. Whether it’s a holiday in Florida, the Wild Atlantic Way or Spain its relatable. John & Grainne are a very unusual writing and singing partnership, from very different backgrounds, upbringing and life experiences.
lyrics
Heading down the highway for a long weekend
Sun cream, Surf boards, having fun with friends
Bikinis and shorts, no jacket and tie
We’ll be dancing at the party under clear blue sky
Lucky, lucky, lucky
Happy, happy, happy
At the beach house, at the beach house
Big waves crashing on a sandy shore
Whoosh, crackle, splish, splash, fistle and roar
Sea colliding with a bright sunny sky
Shimmers and sparkles right in front of my eyes
Lucky, lucky, lucky
Happy, happy, happy
At the beach house, at the beach house
Lucky, lucky, lucky
Happy, happy, happy
At the beach house, at the beach house
I can’t wait to light up the Beach BBQ
Relax in the sun with a drink or two
Sure I’ll pour you a beer, make it long and cool
I can think of nothing better-than being here with you
Lucky, lucky, lucky
Happy, happy, happy
At the beach house, at the beach house
lucky, lucky, lucky
Happy, happy, happy
At the beach house, at the beach house
Out on our veranda as the sun goes down
Pick up the guitar and we pass it around
Old tunes, new tunes, we all sing along
Who would have thought that we’d come up with this song
Lucky, lucky, lucky
Happy, happy, happy
At the beach house, at the beach house
Lucky, lucky, lucky
Happy, happy, happy
At the beach house, at the beach house
