Summertime in Charleston – Original Lyrics

By Mark A Leon

The sun is shining bright, on this coastal town The breeze is blowing soft, as we walk around The ocean’s rolling waves, are crashing on the shore We’ll spend the day in Charleston, and we’ll want for nothing more

(Chorus) Charleston, Charleston, the coastal fun We’ll walk the beach, and soak up the sun We’ll dance and sing, all night long Charleston, Charleston, where we belong

(Verse 2) The shrimp and grits are hot, and the sweet tea is cold The music fills the air, and we’re never feeling old The architecture’s grand, with history so rich We’ll take a horse-drawn carriage ride, it’s an experience to which we’ll never switch

(Chorus) Charleston, Charleston, the coastal fun We’ll walk the beach, and soak up the sun We’ll dance and sing, all night long Charleston, Charleston, where we belong

(Bridge) The colors of the sunrise, the sunset’s gentle hues We’ll take it all in, and never feel the blues The salty air’s refreshing, it’s like a breath of life Charleston, Charleston, we’ll keep you in sight

(Chorus) Charleston, Charleston, the coastal fun We’ll walk the beach, and soak up the sun We’ll dance and sing, all night long Charleston, Charleston, where we belong

(Outro) Charleston, Charleston, our hearts will forever be In this coastal town, where life is carefree.
