So long to Sandra Dee,
Out there, beyond the sea
Gidget is gone, but she lives on
In all of her films where she's surfing..

She was Bob Darin's wife,
And lived a troubled life,
Kidney disease, sad tragedies,
But in her old films she's still surfing..

Sixties...She was a star
Teen Queen...She reached the moon
Then years of alcohol,
And all that ended too soon...

Now, tho' she is no more,
We'll watch, just like before
Grateful are we, for AMC
and all of the films where she's surfing..

Bulemia, Alcohol,
Yes, her fame ended too soon...
And tho' she is no more,
She's here, just like before
Sweet Sandra Dee, on AMC
And here in our hearts, she'll keep surfing..
