Words and music by young jessie and sam ling |
|
I'm gonna tell you a story 'bout mary lou |
|
You know the kind of woman make a fool of you |
|
She make a young man itch |
|
She man an old man faint |
|
The way she took my money was a crying shame |
|
Mary lou she took my watch and chain |
|
Mary lou she took my diamond ring |
|
Mary lou she took the keys to my cadillac car |
|
Jumped in my kitty and drove off far |
|
Left me stranded in kalamazoo |
|
Making her fortune off a fool like you |
|
She married a rich man |
|
Had a dozen kids |
|
Drove that cat until he flipped his lid |
|
Come back into town about a week ago |
|
Told me she was sorry that she hurt me so |
|
I had a fifty-five ford and a two dollar bill |
|
The way she looked at that man gave me a chill |
|
Mary lou |
