The Riviera |
| The Riviera |
| On every street a gay casino |
| Where continentals sip their vino |
| And leave their fortunes to chance |
| The Riviera |
| Where matrons draped in Paris fashions |
| Prolong the twilight of their passions |
| In mad pursuit of romance |
| Every gay mademoiselle |
| Is disarming some Maharajah |
| With the daring of her |
| Life is so completely zany and free |
| By the Mediterranean sea |
| Ah, the Riviera |
| Where every golden coat of sun tan |
| Has cost the gold of more than one man |
| Who wasn’t warned in advance |
| He may take to his heart |
| All the wonders of France |
| Then as a token for the dough that he’s sunk |
| He gets a little label slapped on his trunk |
| The Riviera |
| The Riviera |
| On every street a gay casino |
| Where continentals sip their vino |
| And leave their fortunes to chance |
| The Riviera |
| Where matrons draped in Paris fashions |
| Prolong the twilight of their passions |
| In mad pursuit of romance |
| Every gay mademoiselle |
| Is disarming some Maharajah |
| With the daring of her |
| Life is so completely zany and free |
| By the Mediterranean sea |
| Ah, The Riviera |
| Where every golden coat of sun tan |
| Has cost the gold of more than one man |
| Who wasn’t warned in advance |
| He may take to his heart |
| All the wonders of France |
| Then as a token for the dough that he’s sunk |
| He gets a little label slapped on his trunk |
| The Riviera |
