Music Monday: Jimmy Buffett – “Hey, That’s My Wave”

Posted By on November 11, 2024

Shagwong TavernMy buddy Jeff decided to make a detour from his business appointment in NYC and drive to the end of Long Island “just” Life on the Flip Sideto grab a lobster roll and beer at the Shagwong tavern … because he is a lifetime Jimmy Buffett parrothead. I’m not sure there is a more devoted fan … unless it is Megan. 😊 

That said, I did not know what he was talking about when he called on his drive to Montauk, NY … until his hints had me reading the lyrics to the surfing son “Hey, That’s My Wave” on Jimmy Buffett’s “Life On The Flip Side” album.


Hey, that’s my wave

(I’ll meet you at the Shagwong, we’ll talk about it)

(Hey dude, that’s my wave)

  Jimmy Buffett – “Hey, That’s My Wave” | 2020

It’s got a rock & roll feel and a Jimmy Buffett sound, of course, but the surf anthem “Hey, That’s My Wave” originally sprang from the mind of Sag Harbor chiropractor, surfer and musician Dr. Glenn Goodman.
