A little Gulf coast travelog

lyrics

Cool breezes off the Gulf Stream blow
Warm lovers on the causeway
Me and Lady, we’re cruising slow on a Dixie holiday
Stars sparkle on the velvet night
Touch fingers and the sparks flow
Nat King Cole’s on the radio on a Dixie holiday

And we get high just riding down the highway
Couldn’t care less about tomorrow
The miles roll by and they melt into the dark
I been wondering where you are
Real life’s a hundred million miles away

Steam rising off of Pontchartrain
Mississippi in the moonlight
From Pensacola ‘cross to Mobile Bay on a Dixie holiday
Fried chicken from a roadside stand
Dr. Pepper and a moon pie
Friendly faces, baby ain’t life grand on a Dixie holiday

Warm breezes off the Gulf Stream blow
Cool lovers on the causeway
Me and Baby know it’s time to go on a Dixie holiday

Don’t you know I wish I was, I wish I was, I wish I was in Dixie
