I'm gonna tell you a story
|
'Bout ol' Mary Lou
|
I mean the kind of a girl
|
That make a fool of you
|
|
She make a young man old
|
And an old man pay
|
The way she took my money
|
Was a crying shame
|
|
Mary Lou, Mary Lou
|
She took my watch and chain
|
Mary Lou, Mary Lou
|
She took my diamond ring
|
She took the keys to my Cadillac car
|
Jumped in my Caddy and she drove afar
|
|
Put a detective
|
On her trail
|
The post office thought
|
They'd chase her by the mail
|
|
She got picked up
|
And then was put in jail
|
Stroked the judge
|
Just to go her bail
|
|
Mary Lou, Mary Lou
|
She took my watch and chain
|
Mary Lou, Mary Lou
|
She took my diamond ring
|
She took the keys to my Cadillac car
|
Jumped in my Caddy and she drove afar
|
|
She left Detroit
|
To go to Kalamazoo
|
Made her a fortune
|
Out of fools like you
|
|
Met her a rich man
|
Who was married and had some kids
|
Stroked that cat
|
Until he flipped his lid
|
|
Mary Lou, Mary Lou
|
She took my watch and chain
|
Mary Lou, Mary Lou
|
She took my diamond ring
|
She took the keys to my Cadillac car
|
Jumped in my Caddy and she drove afar
|
|
She came back into town
|
About a week ago
|
Told me she's sorry
|
She had hurt me so
|
|
I had a '65 Ford
|
And a two dollar bill
|
The way she took that
|
Lord, it gave me a thrill
|
|
Mary Lou
|
She took my watch and chain
|
Mary Lou, Mary Lou
|
She took my diamond ring
|
She took the keys to my Cadillac car
|
Jumped in my Caddy and she drove afar
|
|
