Biography

Country singer/songwriter Billy Currington was raised in Rincon, GA. Following high school, he made a couple attempts at relocating to Nashville in the hopes of getting a career in music off the ground, finally landing a job there at a concrete company, while still finding time to play at clubs on the side and work on song demos. When singer Mark Wills put a hold on one of his songs, Currington met and began writing with Wills' producer, Carson Chamberlain, which eventually led to a recording contract with Mercury Records. His first single, "Walk a Little Straighter," was released in 2003, and drew heavily on Currington's experiences with an alcoholic father (the chorus for the song was actually written when Currington was only 12 years old). A debut album, Billy Currington, was released on Mercury Records in 2003. A second album, Doin' Somethin' Right, followed in 2005 on Mercury Nashville. Three years later, Currington delivered the eclectic, R&B-inflected Little Bit of Everything, also on Mercury Nashville. In 2010 Currington returned with his tenth studio effort, Enjoy Yourself, featuring the Troy Jones co-written single "Pretty Good at Drinkin' Beer."

LYRICS

(feat. Brett Beavers, Jim Beavers)
I only slept for a couple of hours
In the back of my buddy's truck
I must be runnin' on solar power
'Cause I'm ready to crank back up

And the boys are all bangin' on cheap guitars
And the girls are all rockin' their bikini tops
And that big ball's way up in the sky
My baby says "Hey I think I wanna get wet"
So we hots and hop into the waters' edge
Hey, it's so good to be alive
Swimmin' in sunshine
Swimmin' in sunshine

There's a hole in my beach towel
There's a hole in the atmosphere
But we got the shade of the lifeguard tower
Yeah, that's where we keep the beer

And the boys are all bangin' on cheap guitars
And the girls are all rockin' their bikini tops
And that big ball's way up in the sky
My baby says "Hey I think I wanna get wet"
So we hots and hop into the waters' edge
Hey, it's so good to be alive
Swimmin' in sunshine
Swimmin' in sunshine
Havin' a good time
Swimmin' in sunshine

Yeah I know Monday always comes again
So I just wanna soak it in

And the boys are all bangin' on cheap guitars
And the girls are all rockin' their bikini tops
And that big ball's way up in the sky
My baby's into lockin' in a Coppertone tan
So I'm so emotional she did with both of my hands
Hey, its so good to be alive
Swimmin' in sunshine
Swimmin' in sunshine
Havin' a good time
Swimmin' in sunshine

La da da da da da da da
La da da da da da da da da da
Swimmin' in sunshine
