Mary Lou - Original Version
I'm gonna tell you a story about Mary Lou
I mean the kind of a girl who make a fool of you
She'd make a young man groan and a poor man pain
The way she took my money was a cryin' shame
Mary Lou (she took my watch and chain)
Mary Lou (she took my diamond ring)
Mary Lou (she took my Cadillac car)
Jumped in my Kitty and then drove to Milan
Well, she picked up from Georgia, moved to Kalamazoo
Made her a fortune outa fools like you
Met her a rich man who was married and had two kids
She stoked that cat until he flipped his lid
Mary Lou (she took my watch and chain)
Mary Lou (she took my diamond ring)
Mary Lou (she took my Cadillac car)
Jumped in my Kitty and then drove afar
Well, she came back to town about a week ago
Told me she was sorry she had hurt me so
I had a '55 Ford and a two dollar bill
The way she took that man she gave me a chill
Mary Lou (she took my watch and chain)
Mary Lou (she took my diamond ring)
Mary Lou (she took my Cadillac car)
Jumped in my Kitty and then drove afar
Mary Lou (Mary Lou, Mary Lou)
And Bernardo too (big fool, big fool)
Ahh, Mary Lou (Mary Lou, Mary Lou)
Oh child you big fool (big fool, big fool)
You did everything for him that you could do (Mary Lou, Mary Lou)
You did everything for him that you could do (Mary Lou, Mary Lou)
You did everything for him that you could do
Awright, thank you for coming to the show, good night
I mean the kind of a girl who make a fool of you
She'd make a young man groan and a poor man pain
The way she took my money was a cryin' shame
Mary Lou (she took my watch and chain)
Mary Lou (she took my diamond ring)
Mary Lou (she took my Cadillac car)
Jumped in my Kitty and then drove to Milan
Well, she picked up from Georgia, moved to Kalamazoo
Made her a fortune outa fools like you
Met her a rich man who was married and had two kids
She stoked that cat until he flipped his lid
Mary Lou (she took my watch and chain)
Mary Lou (she took my diamond ring)
Mary Lou (she took my Cadillac car)
Jumped in my Kitty and then drove afar
Well, she came back to town about a week ago
Told me she was sorry she had hurt me so
I had a '55 Ford and a two dollar bill
The way she took that man she gave me a chill
Mary Lou (she took my watch and chain)
Mary Lou (she took my diamond ring)
Mary Lou (she took my Cadillac car)
Jumped in my Kitty and then drove afar
Mary Lou (Mary Lou, Mary Lou)
And Bernardo too (big fool, big fool)
Ahh, Mary Lou (Mary Lou, Mary Lou)
Oh child you big fool (big fool, big fool)
You did everything for him that you could do (Mary Lou, Mary Lou)
You did everything for him that you could do (Mary Lou, Mary Lou)
You did everything for him that you could do
Awright, thank you for coming to the show, good night
