Lyrics
Refrain
Don’t take your beau to the seashore
When bathing, don’t take your beau to the shore
For bathing suits reveal what petticoats conceal
And if there’s a slight defection
You will never stand inspection
When you go down to the seashore
Take my advice and you won’t go wrong
Girls, when you go, if you’ve nothing to show
Don’t take your beau along
