A childhood belief about songs

I grew up in Brooklyn, NY near the Ocean, which had a boardwalk. The boardwalk was fine to walk on during the day, but at night, had an undesirable element living under it (that’s the fear my parents had enstilled in me anyhow). Homeless people and people going there to do drugs (much scarier to a child than an adult). Anyhow, when I had heard that 50's or 60's song "under The Boardwalk" on one of my Dad's radio stations, I thought it was absolutely demented. The Boardwalk!??! A romantic destination!?! That’s crazy!! The "Boardwalk" as I knew it was in the mid to late 70's. The one in the song "under The Board Walk" (under the board walk, down by the Sea, on a blanket with my baby is where i'll be- that one) was written in a simpler many years prior (or by someone who lived in an area that had a more attractive Under board Walk Element). It wasn’t until I was 9 or 10 my confusion on the song and why it spoke of such an undesirable place as a romantic destination (to sit on a blanket with your baby) was cleared!
