Lyrics

Tampa Red is leaving with that guitar in his hand He ain’t got no money but he don't like the sand He saw Billy Graham down at the local crusade I going to Tampa just might get saved Pro wrestler like it hot in the Tampa summer heat They wrestle in the orange groves they wrestle in the street They say wrestling best down south 275 I’m going to Tampa going to give pro wrestling a try They say the fishing is crazy out there on the bay but every time I go darling I don’t catch a thing I just sit there with the seagulls and watch the dolphins go by I’m going to Tampa going to have a real good time I'm going back to Tampa. I'm going with old Red We’re going to be pro wrestlers we’ll wrestle till we’re dead and while we’re there we’ll sing a death metal song I going to Tampa baby Tampa here I come I’ve been working on the railroad all the live long day I’m going back to Tampa to retire in the shade but it’s hot and Tampa ladies are so fine they party up in Tampa you go to St. Pete to die
