Redneck riviera


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

Chorus

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
Not the south of France

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band is an American musical group formed in Long Beach, California in 1966. Considered pioneers of country rock, they have blended folk and bluegrass influences with more modern sounds, creating a unique and recognizable sound. Among the founding members are Jeff Hanna (vocals, guitar), Jimmie Fadden (drums) and John McEuen (mandolin, banjo). Over the years, the lineup has seen the alternation of several musicians, but Hanna and Fadden have remained constant since the band's inception. Among their most important albums is "Will the Circle Be Unbroken" (1972), a work that marked a turning point in the band's career and helped to spread the country rock sound worldwide. Other representative songs include "Fishin' in the Dark", "Long Hard Road", and "Mr. Bojangles". The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band continues to be active, releasing new albums and touring.
