Redneck Riviera - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

Headed south on 65 route 5 or 6 I'll drive

There's a place where the folks from dixie go

You don't need no cowboy boots

Trade'em in for a bathing suit

Hang out on the Gulf Of Mexico

On a weekend holiday

We don't parlez vous francais

Turnin' it up from a sunny day

Then we dance the night away

On the redneck riviera

On the red-ed neck riviera

On the redneck riviera

It's a paradise oh yeah

(Oh) yeah

Sippin' hospitality under proud umbrella trees

Good ol' boys and the long necks scattered 'round

Girls come rushin' from a far

When I strum "Louie Louie" on my old guitar

String bikini happy hunting ground

On a weekend holiday

We don't parlez vous francais

Turnin' it up from a sunny day

Then we dance the night away

On the redneck riviera

On the red-ed neck riviera

On the redneck riviera

It's a paradise oh yeah

Yeah

We don't have to parlez vous francais

Well the surf is up in Alabam'

Mississippi Florida and the Gulf shore sand

Stoke your fire with a sunny day yeah

Just like them folks in St Tropez

On the redneck riviera

On the red-ed neck riviera

On the redneck riviera

It's a paradise oh yeah

It's a paradise oh yeah

It's a paradise Oh yeah

Oh yeah

Oh the surf is up in Florida down

Panama City to the Destin Sound

You can stoke your fire with a sunny day yeah

Just like them folks in St Topez

Hey this is the south
