"East Meets West" lyrics

The Beach Boys & Frankie Valli And The Four Seasons Lyrics

"East Meets West"

Ooo ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo

East, west!
East, west!

East (east) meets west (west)
Different drummers side by side
When east (east) meets west (west)
The best of both survive
From the nights in Hollywood
To the lights on Broadway, yeah
Some said we never could ever cross that line

I remember hangin' out in '62
Down at the diner scorin' all the time
When out in California where the surf was up
You had a woodie, buddy, girls would stand in line
We were the kings of the things we liked to do
A game of rivalry comparing
Me and you, me and you (they're comparing, they're comparing, they're comparing)

East (east) meets west (west)
Different drummers side by side
When east (east) meets west (west)
The best of both survive

Drivin' down the Jersey shore
Riding 'round La Jolla, yeah
Top Forty evermore on the radio

Got the rhythm of the breakers in my blood
I take it with me everywhere I go
I need to feel the inner city energy
Can't do without it, it's the only way I know
There's no goodbye to the ties that bind us to
The way will always be comparing
Me and you, me and you (they're comparing, they're comparing, they're comparing)

East, west!
East, west!

From the nights in Hollywood
To the lights on Broadway, yeah
Some said we never could ever cross that line
(Cross that line, cross that line, cross that line, cross that, cross that line)

East, west!
East, west!

Two different drummers playin' side by side, whoa-oh
You know the best of them will survive
Two different drummers playin' side by side, whoa-oh
You know the best of them will survive

Yeah-ay, yeah-ay (cross that line, ooo)
All the nights on Broadway
Yeah-ay, yeah-ay (cross that line, ooo)
All the nights on Broadway
Yeah-ay, yeah-ay (cross that line, ooo)
All the nights on Broadway
Yeah-ay, yeah-ay
