CHORUS:
AE
Adalida, pretty little cajun queen
E
sweet dixie flower, the belle of the bayou
A
you're every young man's dream
AD
Adalida, I'd walk thru a hurricane
E
to stand beside you sweet Adalida
A
I'd swin the Pontchartrain
AE
Oh no, here you comin down the road
With your cotton dress a swishin',
you gettin some attention
A
from all the boys in Thibodaux
AD
Oh my you really fillin up their eyes
E
smilin' and a winkin', I know what they're thinkin'
A
but I'm the only one who loves you so!
REPEAT CHORUS
AD
Oh no, the hottest little dish I know
E
I know you can tell it, your makin me so jealous,
A
From my head down to my toes
AD
Oh me, you could make a redneck green,
E
the way that your a lookin', you got me cookin'
A
and I ain't talkin 'bout Etoufee'
