Tom T. Hall - Redneck Riviera lyrics

Down here on the Redneck Riviera a
Drinkin' beer and singing country songs
Chillin' with the motel door wide open
Hopin' somethin' good will come along
Gulf Shores up through Apalachi-cola they got
Beaches of the whitest sand
Nobody cares if gramma's got
A tottoo or Bubba's
Got a hot wing in his hand
Redneck Riviera is where I wanna be down here
On the Redneck Riviera by the sea

Down here on the Redneck Riviera trawlin'
Up and down Mir-a-cle Mile
Smoothin' out my tan and disposition and
Wearin' little other than a smile
(trumpet - guitar)
On Highway 98 I got a ticket
Something I ain't never understood
If driving a convertible is
Topless why can't
I ride my Harley in the nude
Down here on the Redneck Riviera sign
Says Smoking Mullet Here Today
I really don't know what
I'm gettin' into but
I'm in line to try some anyway
Redneck Riviera is where I wanna be down here
On the Redneck Riviera by the sea

I got seven dollars for the jukebox twenty
More left over for some beer
Down here on the Redneck Riviera there
Ain't no better living anywhere
Now here comes them dreadful possums
(Down here on the Redneck Riviera down
Here on the Redneck Riviera
(Down here on the Redneck Riviera down
Here on the Redneck Riviera
(Down here on the Redneck Riviera down
Here on the Redneck Riviera
(Down here on the Redneck Riviera down
Here on the Redneck Riviera
(Down here on the Redneck Riviera down
Here on the Redneck Riviera)
