Tohe Riviera - Johnny Mathis

When trouble troubles you

the only thing to do

is dance, you simply gotta dance

And if you’ve had a tiff

you’ll soon forget it if you dance

you simply gotta dance

Here in the south of France

they’ve got a new step

it’s quite the cutest dance invented to step

so do step

Wriggle your hips and kick up your heels

you’ll be suprised how lovely it feels

Ev’rybody’s doing the Riviera

Wiggle your fingers, wiggle your toes

Just how it started nobody knows

Ev’rybody’s doing the Riviera

Multi Millionaires and their little pets do it

Even maiden ladies who wear lorgnettes

have taken to it

Tell ev’ryone to give out the news

this is the way to shake off the blues

Ev’rybody’s doing the Riviera

Tell ev’ryone to give out the news

this is the way to shake off the blues

Ev’rybody’s doing the Riviera

Get on the dance floor, get in the swing

this is the time for having a fling

Everybody’s doing the Riviera

Clap-a your hands and slap on your thighs

Grin like a goon and roll up your eyes

Ev’rybody’s doing the Riviera

All the bright young things and their bright young beaux do it

Even duchesses and their gigalos

have taken to it

Ain’t it terrific?

Ain’t it the top?

You gotta dance right on till you drop

Ev’rybody’s doing the Riviera
